FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRY

Mechanical Services for Food Processing Facilities in Kansas City

Following well-defined guidelines for HVAC services for food plants is critical!

There are as many types of food processing plants as there are categories of foods. While processing facilities designed for frozen or fresh, seafood or meat products, or vegetables and fruits may all be different, they each have some basic features in common.

For human health and safety, the atmosphere in these facilities must be kept clean, flowing, and well-maintained at proper temperatures to limit the spread of bacteria and other airborne contaminants. Only properly qualified technicians, fully knowledgeable of food safety requirements, should be involved in the design, installation, and maintenance of your HVAC systems.

Experts from Lippert Mechanical are certified in the technical aspects of commercial and industrial heating, cooling, and ventilation, and are licensed to handle HVAC services for food plants.

Food Processing HVAC Ventilation & Safety in Kansas City

Keeping processing rooms properly cooled and clean is a fundamental requirement for food production. HVAC systems are critical control points in the management of food processing plants and must be kept within guidelines to eliminate airborne pathogens, allergens, and other potentially harmful components. Colder temperatures reduce the growth of bacteria, so properly maintaining and controlling your system is a base requirement.

Airflow and filtration are also critical. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has recognized that airborne contamination is a leading suspect in the spread of pathogenic contamination. Unfiltered air and improper air circulation have been directly linked to many microbiological contamination events in past decades. Your ventilation system needs to be absolutely airtight so you don’t lose conditioned air in the ductwork.

Food Plant HVAC Ventilation & Food Quality Services in Lawrence, KS

Along with the potential for airborne bacteria, improper ventilation can lead to the conveyance of odors that can impart undesirable flavors to processed food products. A sufficient number of air changes and proper filtration should be established to remove these potential quality-affecting problems. With many products, a minimum of 15-20 air changes per hour may be sufficient. Some cleaner rooms and specific products require more complete air changes per hour to ensure minimal bacteria exposure and longer shelf life.

Periodic measurement and verification are critical to maintaining the ideal airflow for your products and facilities. Filters must be checked and changed regularly to ensure they are functioning properly. Lippert Mechanical experts will measure and monitor your HVAC system to ensure that healthful standards are being met.

In addition, for the health and safety of your employees, HVAC services for food plants must be monitored carefully.
