ADJUSTABLE EXHAUST HOOD WITH AIR CURTAIN

An exhaust hood is disclosed which comprises an open underside and a greas e filter defining an exhaust plenum between the hood and the grease filter and a flow path through the grease filter. A shutter-like panel is slidable into the flow pa th adjacent to the grease filter for blocking a portion of the flow path to adjust the distribution of air across the face of the hood without altering the volume of air flowing throu gh the exhaust hood. Multiple side-by-side panels may be provided and each panel preferably tapers in height across its width. An intake fan is provided at a front portion of the hood to direct room air from adjacent the hood through an intake plenum and downwardly at a front portion of the space beneath the hood to create a partial air curtain which is then exhausted through the hood.
