Ensure Your Kitchen is Ready for the Holiday Rush
As the Holiday Season approaches, the aroma of delicious meals fills the air, but for foodservice businesses, it also means a surge in orders and a heightened demand on your kitchen equipment. This season, don’t let malfunctioning equipment disrupt your holiday cheer – prioritize preventative maintenance to keep your kitchen running smoothly throughout the busy holidays!
Why Holiday Prep Matters:
- Peak Demand: Expect larger crowds and bigger orders, putting extra strain on your ovens, refrigerators, and dishwashers.
- Unpredictable Hours: Extended operating hours can push your equipment beyond its usual limits.
- Customer Satisfaction: A breakdown during the holidays can lead to unhappy customers and lost revenue.
Key Areas to Focus On
- Refrigeration Check-up: Regularly check your coolers and freezers for proper temperature control, defrosting functionality, and potential leaks.
- Oven Calibration: Ensure your ovens are heating evenly at the correct temperatures to prevent overcooked or undercooked dishes.
- Grease Trap Maintenance: Clean and inspect your grease traps to avoid clogs and potential plumbing issues.
- Dishwasher Inspection: Check for proper water pressure & temperature, spray arm functionality, and detergent dispensing mechanisms.
- Small Appliance Tune-up: Don’t forget to check your blenders, food processors, and other small appliances to ensure they’re all working properly.
- Stock Up on Parts: Discuss any potential wear-and-tear parts with your technician and ensure you have a readily available inventory. Parts@JayHillRepairs.com or (973) 575-9145 Prompt 2.
