Abstract: A kitchen heat reclamation apparatus includes a heat producing kitchen apparatus, and a chute positioned near a portion of the heat producing kitchen apparatus that produces heated air. An air handler moves at least a portion of the heated air produced by the heat producing kitchen apparatus along a heated air path that passes through the chute. A heat extractor is associated with the chute. The heat extractor removes heat from the air before exhausting the air to the atmosphere. The heat removed by the heat extractor can be used in other areas of a building or can be used to generate electricity.
