Preventative maintenance of your equipment is important to both Cater Repair and DCS – it prolongs the life and value of your investment. Below are 5 simple tips to help you save time and money:
TIP 1 – Drain and clean your dishwasher…
Drain and clean your dishwasher
It only takes a few moments at the end of each day. Stagnant water and food will grow and smell horrible by morning. If you drain your machine and clean it properly each night it will last longer and clean better.
Save time AND money by avoiding unnecessary service and repairs with a clean and efficient machine!
TIP 2 – Clean your combi oven…
Clean your oven
It takes no time at all! While you are cleaning the rest of your premises, spray your liquid cleaner into your oven and run it on steam for 15 minutes. This will loosen baked on food and make it easier to clean. When cool, wipe it out. Done!
Better cooking efficiency! Ongoing care means a better running oven!
TIP 3 – Check your chemical levels…
Check your chemical levels
Check the level of the chemicals for your dishwasher and combi oven. By marking the bottle with a pen on regular intervals you can monitor if there is any problems with the chemical system and have it repaired before it causes too much damage. Simple!
Stop a problem before it occurs! Maximum equipment efficiency!
TIP 4 – Turn OFF the pilot lights…
Turn off your pilot lights
It sounds so simple but can be overlooked at the end of a busy shift. Pilot lights use gas; if left on when the kitchen is closed they waste gas; they are an ignition source and are safest when turned off.
Reduce wasted resources! Reduce fire risk!
TIP 5 – Check electrical appliances…
Toaster
A quick check of electrical appliances at the end of the shift may save you a fire. Electrical salamanders and toasters are often forgotten about. It only takes a few minutes and it may save a lot of heartache.
Keep your electricity bill down! Reduce fire risk!
