Commercial Dishwashers: The Help A School Needs

Now that our children are back in school and are resuming their academic pursuits in the most efficient way possible. Though that might sound like a good idea, last year’s COVID pandemic means that there’s always the fear of contamination, among all things. After all, you want your children to be as safe as possible no matter what. And we’re still hot off the heels of the pandemic – you never want to compromise your children’s safety in the end, especially when it comes to the cafeterias. And let’s be honest – that’s not something that your typical school lunch lady can ensure. And that’s precisely why your school needs a commercial dishwasher that can handle the entire school’s wares in the long run.

Why your school needs commercial dishwashers: The primary reason

Cleanliness is paramount to success – and efficiency, too, in the long run. Schools are notoriously famous as a place for learning and school lunch rotations that may or may not be dull that depends on the school. Though that might depend on the school, every one of these school lunches is specifically designed to give every student the perfect nutritional balance they need for the rest of the day. Additionally, some schools would offer a specific meal for a specific day to try and spice up the week – like Chicken Finger Fridays or something along those lines.

But spicing up your food is one thing – ensuring the cleanliness of the plates is another. We mentioned earlier that the world is still pretty much hot off the heels of the global pandemic, and that’s nothing short of the truth. Cleanliness is still everyone’s topmost priority, and that much wouldn’t be able to be resolved with the help of your run-of-the-mill lunch lady. Your regular lunch lady could never – and you know full well that they wouldn’t be able to wash the dishes with the same quality as you might expect to have. Remember, quality over quantity – but having both wouldn’t hurt in the long run.

What else can a commercial dishwasher do for your school?

Some might chalk up a commercial dishwasher as nothing more than just a grandeur expenditure – after all, you can pretty much do all the dishwashing by yourself, right? And you can also argue that you’ll be better off doing everything with your own hands. But hold your horses – there’s more to this glorious expenditure than what the eyes can see.

A commercial dishwasher is a potent tool specifically designed to be robust, even years after its purchase. For one thing, a dishwasher will be more than likely to give the students a clean dish to work out of. Additionally, the fact that commercial dishwashers are made to last for years means that they can always be functional for years to come.

Choosing the best commercial dishwashers for your school: the golden standard

Now that you might be more than interested in getting a dishwasher for your school, you might already be scrolling through several websites in search of one. Be that as it may, however, that’s not the best way to go around doing things. It would help if you always were more cautious about buying a dishwasher, as not everything you see is as accurate as it is.

Most importantly, you should be able to conduct proper research about the brand you will be buying from; For starters, they should have a reputable website with thousands of positive natural reviews from people who have bought the dishwasher.

FAQs

Can you run a dishwasher without hot water?

  • Yes, a dishwasher can be run without a hot water connection. All Rhima’s machines have a “Thermo stop,” which means the cycle will not complete if the temperature has not reached the safe minimum for sanitation. Cycle times may be longer. For machines connected to cold water, if possible, connect to the 3-phase power supply.

Does my machine comply with HACCP Guidelines?

  • Rhima has developed a unique monitoring program that takes safety, hygiene, and operational conditions into account. Once correctly set up, your machine will comply with HACCP guidelines. At least once per year, we recommend doing a safety hygiene test on the dishwasher. Rhima technicians are specially trained in carrying out preventative maintenance and HACCP testing on Rhima equipment. This includes temperature checks with a calibrated thermometer, residual protein swabs (before and after), and complete preventative maintenance on the machine.

Can I wash other items in glasswashers (i.e., cups and saucers?)

  • Yes, other items such as plates, cups, and saucers can be washed in glasswashers. Rhima glasswashers use the same washing technology as our larger dishwashers. You can wash cups, saucers, and lightly soiled plates. It is not recommended to wash dinner plates. If your glasswasher has been set up with our High Sparkle system, then we recommend use for glasses only.
