A lot of attention and thought is given to lowering the energy consumption and decrease the consumption of energy. This has led many manufacturers to create appliances that are energy efficient and environmental friendly. By introducing the Eco-friendly techniques and methods not only the environment can be kept clean but it also lowers the cost of energy by decreasing the consumption of energy. So you get to keep the environment nice, safe and healthy and also save money in the process.
Saving money and keeping the standard up to the par is not as difficult as it seems in the commercial kitchen. There are various ways in which you can increase the profits of the business by decreasing the energy cost of the Refrigeration System. There are simple tips that can be very itself in saving money in a commercial kitchen.
First thong that you can do in order to lower your energy cost is to turn off the door heaters. This can be very effective in lowering the Energy Consumption. Unless it is absolutely necessary there is no need to keep these heaters on. They just consume unnecessary energy. So keep them off as often as you can.
Always make sure that you install your refrigeration system in a place where there is excellent ventilation and air circulation. This can not only save energy but also make the equipment function more efficiently. If the heat builds up in a place where you place your refrigeration and it does not has any outlet than it can really damage the refrigeration system and it causes them to work harder. This not only results in increased consumption of the energy but also decreases the life span of the appliances as they have to work harder.
The maintenance of the refrigeration equipment is very crucial in order to increase the efficiency of the refrigeration system. The more efficient the system is the fewer loads it is going to put on the Energy Consumption. So clean the evaporator and the condenser regularly. The dirty coils will cause the system to utilize more energy as it will have to work harder.
Always buy the system that is energy smart and has the ability to adapt to the changing conditions. This will save you a lot of energy because it will only work as hard as it need to. Use the refrigerator with doors that close automatically. Sometimes running a restaurant, when business is at peak the workers sometimes do not get to close the door properly which really affects the working of the system and cause it to utilize more energy. This problem can be solved by using automatic closing doors. They can help you save a lot of money.
Make sure that the refrigeration system is in its best condition. Having refrigeration gaskets that are cracked causes a lot of energy consumption. It also lowers the efficiency of the machine. Replacing these damaged gaskets can really help in lowering the energy costs of the business. It will also increase the efficiency of the system.
