How to maintain your commercial refrigeration system?

February 5th, 2022

If you own a restaurant or any other type of commercial building, you may also own a refrigeration system. You also know that it is a big problem when this type of device breaks down because it can slow down your production and even put your customers at risk of poisoning. The maintenance of your commercial refrigeration system is to be taken very seriously. The following article will give you some tips on how to maintain your system in order to increase its life span and to prevent it from breaking down as much as possible.

 

What is a Commercial Refrigerator?

 

Is there a difference between a commercial refrigerator and the one you have at home in your kitchen? Actually, both works similarly, but the commercial refrigerator is designed to store large quantities of food. It is primarily intended for businesses such as restaurants, grocery stores and other establishments where food must be stored.

Maintenance of your Refrigeration System

 

Careful and thorough maintenance will improve the life of your investment while ensuring that it is operating at its best. To maximize performance, one of the things you should do is make sure that the grills and fans on the back of the unit are always free of dust. As for the interior, make sure you only put food in closed containers. This way you avoid the proliferation of bacteria and cross-contamination. It is important to clean the inside of your refrigerator regularly to ensure proper food preservation. Sloppy or infrequent cleaning can lead to an unsanitary incident, which could have serious consequences on your establishment’s reputation and could put your customers at risk.

 

Suitable Products

 

For an effective cleaning, you must use specialized products recommended by your supplier for your appliances. When cleaning your appliances, do not forget all the grills, shelves, walls and the rubber seals. It is very important to rinse the product well and specially to dry all parts. Residual moisture could damage the various components and reduce their performance. The exterior also needs a good cleaning. No one wants to witness a device that is covered with fingerprints or food. This would not give a professional and healthy image of your establishment. Again, use a product recommended by your supplier and be sure to dry all components.

 

Call Professionals

 

A commercial refrigeration system is a significant investment and hiring professionals to maintain it is a wise move. A professional will be able to advise you on the different actions to take to maintain your appliance on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis. He will also be able to establish a maintenance schedule with you. Do not hesitate to call them!
