  • Patent number: 9557082
    Abstract: A stand alone venting apparatus for an enclosed space that converts open door and closed door emissions of a steam and hot air oven into cooler air and condensate, the apparatus comprising an expansion chamber, a condensing chamber and a chilling chamber. A capture hood is provided for capturing the open door emissions. An emissions inlet is provided for capturing the closed door emissions. The condensing chamber includes condensing tubes with each tube containing an interior and an exterior. The open door emissions are directed over the exterior of the condensing tubes and the closed door emissions are directed within the interior of the condensing tubes. The expansion chamber and chilling chambers work with the condensing chamber to further cool and condense the emissions. All emissions may be re-circulated back into the enclosed space without requiring ductwork to vent outside the enclosed space.
