When Do You Need to Replace Commercial Cooking Equipment?

Posted by Writer - August 26, 2021 - Commercial Kitchen Equipment

Commercial restaurant equipment is a significant investment for any food industry business. Thankfully, with the correct maintenance from a qualified professional, this equipment is likely to last for many years. Of course, there will come a time when some of this equipment will need to be replaced. You may be concerned with commercial freezing icing issues that are causing havoc with your cold storage.

Let’s take a closer look at how to evaluate when it’s time to replace your valuable equipment.

Safety

You should always place safety at the top of the priority list. If your kitchen staff will be at risk with a faulty griddle, for example, this can be a hazard—so can a commercial refrigerator that’s more than 10 years old and requiring you to start solving freezer icing issues. Food that isn’t properly stored can lead to foodborne illnesses and spoilage.

Repair costs

You have to weigh the cost of maintenance and repairs against investing in new equipment. Everything from ice makers to ventilation systems, commercial dishwashers and commercial refrigerators will require tune-ups and the occasional replacement of parts; however, if you need to call in the technician frequently, it may become clear that it’s time for replacement. The last thing you want is for your equipment to get in the way of delivering your best to your customers.

Efficiency

Sometimes commercial cooking equipment becomes an intense energy draw. This is especially the case with faulty commercial refrigerators, which can increase your electric bills. Newer equipment is often more energy efficient and over time will offset the initial outlay. You may also be able to take advantage of rebates and deals to lower costs as well.

Performance

If you’re running a commercial kitchen, you know that the equipment needs to be up to the task every day. You want everything working in top form so that you can keep offering a consistent product. You may think that you can get, say, 10 years out of a commercial refrigerator, but if it’s having consistent issues after year five, it may be time for replacement.

The fact is that, while manufacturers can claim that their product will last for a specific amount of time, usage matters a lot. If you’re constantly opening and closing a fridge door, the gaskets and hinges are going to take a lot of punishment. Other factors from rust to power surges to careless use can also affect the lifespan of this equipment. At some point, it becomes a wise idea to invest in new equipment.
