Only high standard industrial dishwashers offer double-skinned
construction. The internal tank is where the wash and rinse process
actually take place, but it is not in direct contact with the outer
environment as it is positioned inside a 'hull' and closed by panels
from all sides.
Teikos invites you to consider the advantages of this solution:
Appliances with double-skinned construction radiate less heat from
external surfaces when compared to those with single-skinned panels
(during the rinse phase the temperature can reach more than 80°C !);
unfortunately the heat tends to ruin the adjacent furniture (laminate
melts, surfaces may change color, etc); so, you better keep it under
control!
Double-skinned construction limits the heat loss (the water cools
down less quickly). This feature allows for a less intense use of the
heating elements. The result is reduced energy consumption.
Another advantage? Double-skinned construction allows the use of
hinges for robust and strong door construction. In particular, it
allows the possibility to design such a system of door opening in
which there are no side tie rods which obstruct and limit the
possibility of freely removing the basket from the wash tank. And at
Teikos we know that a basket full of dishes can be really heavy!
The system of door opening can easily
be balanced via systems which operate outside the wash tank. This
system offers a series of advantages, in terms of durability,
reliability and perceived quality. Not to mention the advantage of
avoiding the traditionally used clicking system on door opening
which, in the presence of steam, detergents and rinse-aid liquid
agents tends to lose its efficiency over a short period of time.
The environment, your wallet and......your spine, will thank you !
