A guide for making the right investment
Any commercial establishment with a kitchen deserves a dishwasher that is not only high quality but also meets its needs in terms of space, capacity, and desired features. Even better when it’s water and energy-efficient! Here’s an overview of the different types of dishwashers on the market and their respective advantages.
Undercounter dishwashers
Having a large work surface is particularly important in smaller kitchens, where every inch counts. To declutter and free up space, an undercounter dishwasher is a smart choice.
The main advantage of undercounter dishwashers is that they save space. In fact, all the features of commercial dishwashers can be found in a compact version. Whether for a small restaurant, bar, or café, choose an appliance that fits easily into your work environment without compromising on efficiency.
A few points to consider:
• Take the time to carefully plan the location of your dishwasher: this step will save you a lot of money and surprises. Be sure to accurately measure the available space, confirm that the connections are compatible, and check that the area around the appliance stays clear and functional.
• Choose features based on your needs: opt for wash cycles suited to your type of dishes, plan for a high-temperature cycle or sanitizing option if necessary, andlook for good performance indicators to save both time and money.
Glasswashers
For establishments that mainly serve beverages (bars, pubs, cafés), it is important to ensure a good turnover of glassware.
A glasswasher allows you to quickly and efficiently clean different types of glassware with a gentle enough flow to avoid damaging them and a strong enough pressure to ensure impeccable cleaning. Reliability and easy maintenance are some of the features to consider, which is precisely what you will find in a Lamber glasswasher.
Things to take into account:
• Think about how many glasses you need: base your calculation on your busiest days!
• Check the quality of your water: hard water can leave marks and stains on glasses. The solution is an effective water treatment system based on the quality of your water. Water softeners, filters, and reverse osmosis systems are commonly used methods of water quality management.
Pass-through dishwashers
In a busy kitchen, whether in a restaurant, hotel, hospital, or other establishment, managing large quantities of dishes becomes easy with the right equipment.
The pass-through dishwasher is an ideal commercial appliance for cleaning large quantities of dishes quickly. Simply load the basket, slide it into the dishwasher, and close the hood. With increased capacity and powerful washing performance, it’s the ally you can count on during peak hours.
What to keep in mind:
• Maximize your efficiency with its large capacity: whether you’re cleaning dishes, utensils, glassware, or other kitchenware, this dishwasher is designed to handle large volumes quickly and efficiently. Its versatility is also a valued feature for restaurants with varied menus that require different types of dishes!
• Allow for adequate space: the pass-through dishwasher is designed for heavy-duty use and therefore requires a dedicated corner in the kitchen. Its installation requires sufficient space to facilitate loading and unloading while ensuring smooth traffic flow.
Pots and pans dishwashers
It’s well known that encrusted food residue and stubborn grease are among the least pleasant parts of washing cookware. Not to mention the fact that all those pots and pans are heavy and bulky.
To avoid having to clean all your cookware by hand, a pots and pans dishwasher is the equipment you need. No more hours of soaking and scrubbing by hand. It makes the job easier and ensures effective cleaning. And whether small or large, this dishwasher can accommodate all your cookware! Choose a user-friendly dishwasher, such as Lamber models, equipped with a soft-touch control panel and digital thermostats.
Key points to assess:
• Consider the total cost of operation: look at not only the purchase price, but also the savings in water, electricity, and labor.
• Check the capacity and dimensions: make sure that all of your cookware intended for the same wash cycle can fit in the dishwasher.
In short
When choosing your next commercial dishwasher, it is important to assess your needs based on the layout of your kitchen, the type and quantity of dishes to be cleaned, and the savings you are looking to achieve, whether in terms of water and energy consumption or washing time. All these factors contribute to choosing equipment that is both efficient and cost-effective in the long term.
