domestic kitchens

Residential cooking areas

Domestic kitchens are kitchens in private homes, as distinguished from commercial or institutional kitchens in restaurants, hospitals, or schools.

The phrase appears most often in regulations, product specifications, and safety guidelines: This appliance is designed for domestic kitchens only.

The adjective domestic emphasizes household rather than professional use.
