Hood Dishwashers
Hood dishwashers are ideal for large restaurants or industrial kitchens because they allow for easy loading, especially when installed with proper entry and exit tables that make line work simple. Washing times are also very short: these machines can complete a wash cycle in just one minute, cleaning up to 60 baskets per hour.
However, their overall size is not insignificant, and these machines must be placed in a very spacious area to be fully utilized. Energy consumption varies depending on the speed required for cleaning, ranging from 3.3 kW in commercial dishwasher models to 10.8 kW in the more powerful Hood dishwashers, even with double heating elements.
Hood dishwashers are ideal for washing large quantities of dishes in a short amount of time. The loading operation should be simple and functional, so it is recommended to place the unit near the sink, a trash bin, and close to the kitchen entrance. This will make it easier for waitstaff to place dishes on the table or sink. The operator will remove leftover food, separating it into wet and dry waste, and using the sink, they will assist the dishwasher by rinsing off the most stubborn dirt under the water jet.
If you choose the more powerful Hood dishwasher, you won’t need a pre-rinse, even for heavily soiled dishes: items can be placed directly into the basket without hesitation and will come out clean and shiny in just a few minutes.
The structure of the Hood dishwashers is designed to allow the operator to avoid bending down to place the dishes in the basket: the support base is high, and the dishwasher door is easy to close thanks to the handle. After completing the wash, the basket is easily unloaded, and reloading is quick and simple.
