Meet The Team
HoodMaster™ Limited was established by David and Samantha Bottom. Dave and Sam have worked in the commercial kitchen ventilation industry for more than 30 years combined and have a vast wealth of experience in low velocity commercial kitchen canopys in New Zealand, the UK, Middle East, Europe, Australia and the Pacific Islands.
Starting their careers in the UK, they worked on projects ranging from restaurants, prisons, MOD work, pubs and café’s. Sam’s background is primarily in the sales, design and quoting of the low velocity range hoods. Dave worked his way through all aspects of the range hood business; from senior design engineer, project manager to UK technical sales manager.
Moving to NZ in 2013, they introduced the British standard, DW172, to the New Zealand market and have been involved in some of the largest commercial kitchen projects in recent history of New Zealand. The DW172 standard has been widely adopted throughout New Zealand and is now recognised and used by some of the industry leading mechanical consultants.
