Steam Commercial Kitchen Cleaning

Commercial kitchen cleaning and sanitation are essential in order to keep food safe and clean. The grease and oil buildup in commercial kitchens is inevitable and can't be prevented but there are ways to combat it. You have a few options; one being to pay someone else to do it, another being to invest in a commercial kitchen cleaner. A new product that is gaining popularity is the disinfectant spray. These products kill the bacteria and germs that accumulate in grease, dirt and food particles.

There are two major benefits of using the disinfectant spray for your commercial kitchen deep cleaning needs. The first benefit is the sanitization and the clear coating it gives your flooring or surface. The disinfectant acts as a barrier and kills the bacteria, germs and fungi that are causing your problems. This prevents re-soiling and an unpleasant odor. By killing those culprits, you cut down on the expense of your restaurant's cleaning bill.

Before you go about your deep cleaning, make sure to get rid of all the items that you won't be using again. Typically this includes grease, oil and grease mats. In addition, use your disinfectant spray and warm soapy water to remove any residue left behind by your cleaners. Use a clean wet wash cloth to thoroughly dry your floor or surface. After your cleaning is complete, rinse with clean warm water to remove any remaining residue and use a mild, non-abrasive detergent to wipe away any oil residue that remained after your cleaners are done.

Commercial kitchen sinks are usually dishwashers with a hook on top for draining. These drain stations are normally equipped with pumps that discharge grease into the sewer lines. It's a good idea to have your grease tracked to a sewer line before starting your kitchen deep cleaning project. In most cases, the drains themselves are clogged with grease and it can take some elbow grease to clear this out.

The grease buildup in commercial kitchens can also lead to costly repairs and even replacement of equipment. You'll want to have your kitchen sinks pumped out at least every twelve months. If you're cleaning them less often, make sure you check them out on a monthly basis as well. This way you can catch any leaks before they turn into a larger issue.

If your kitchen sink isn't hooked on to a drain, there's a simple solution. Purchase an inexpensive plastic washer fluid and dissolve the dirt using your bristle brush. Pour the cleaner into a container and wipe the entire surface of the sink on a monthly basis. This is much easier than lugging around a heavy washer fluid bottle. Most restaurants have a dishwasher that comes with a built in bristle brush. Using this tool to keep your countertops and appliances clean is also a good idea.

If you have a busy catering business, like many do, your oven can develop a grease fire in no time. In many cases, a grease fire can be caused by not cleaning the oven on a regular basis. A quick call to a commercial kitchen cleaning service will save you from having to hire someone to fix the problem for you. They'll also provide recommendations for any other areas of your catering kitchen that need commercial kitchen deep cleaning. A service can also help you determine whether or not you need a new oven so you can avoid buying one when your old one needs a replacement. Having a fresh, clean oven in your kitchen eliminates the need to constantly replace your equipment.

Steam cleaning services for commercial kitchens are becoming increasingly popular. Instead of employing people to do the tedious task of steaming the equipment, companies like Tefal have created a high-end solution that alleviates many of the chores involved with traditional steam cleaning. You simply fill up your car with warm water and a small amount of baking soda, then load the car with the equipment. Your truck will then begin to heat up and the special "baking stone" device will begin to dry off. As the baking stone cools, it is time for your to use a high-pressure blast of hot water to thoroughly rinse away dirt and grime, then dry off with fans and your cool truck.
