There are many factors to consider when renovating or designing the MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) systems for a kitchen space. Here are three key points to keep in mind when selecting MEP design services for restaurant kitchens:
1. Kitchen Ventilation System
Choosing the right industrial kitchen ventilation system can help reduce energy consumption and other costs. Architects and MEP engineers must work together to determine the appropriate size and location of hoods and air units.
2. Specialized Control and Lighting Systems
Selecting and arranging the right lighting systems for your kitchen can be challenging, considering the different functional needs of the dining and kitchen spaces. This includes proper lighting for both staff working areas and customer areas. A professional lighting system designer can help you choose the most suitable lighting system.
3. Temperature and Humidity Control
Comfort is a major concern when it comes to MEP design for dining establishments. The workload intensity in a restaurant fluctuates between peak and off-peak hours, not to mention the time allocated for kitchen and cleaning staff.
Therefore, controlling temperature and humidity, and adjusting based on usage needs, is crucial to maintain appropriate conditions throughout the day while optimizing energy consumption.
These basic considerations will make it easier for you to begin designing and building your dining establishment. MEC International, with its team of experienced MEP engineers, can assist customers in ensuring their projects are energy-efficient, cost-effective, and become preferred dining venues for many customers.
