AIR DIFFUSER GRILLE 16.75 X 2

In restaurant equipment such as a refrigerator or freezer, a diffuser is typically used to distribute cold air evenly throughout the appliance. The diffuser helps to ensure that temperatures remain consistent and help to keep food fresh and prevent spoilage. An alternate type of diffuser may be located near the compressor or fan where it assists in exhausting heat, and may take the form of a grille, panel slats, or a series of openings through which vented air can pass.

Diffusers are often used in restaurant kitchen ventilation systems to distribute air. They can be used in combination with exhaust hoods, fans, and other ventilation equipment to create a more comfortable and safe working environment for the kitchen staff. They are typically made of metal or plastic and may have adjustable louvers or other features to allow for precise control of the airflow.

A grill is a perforated cover for an air duct (used for heating, cooling, or ventilation, or a combination thereof). Grills sometimes have louvers which allow the flow of air to be directed.

A grill may also be a device that cooks food by applying heat from below. There are several varieties of grills, with most falling into one of three categories: gas-fueled, charcoal, or electric.

In frying, a grill may refer to a metallic filtering device used to remove food debris from the cooking oil.
