Preventative Maintenance for Commercial Kitchen Appliances

“Hot Side” equipment faces extreme thermal stress daily. Our preventative maintenance (PM) protocol focuses on the critical components that fail most:

  1. Gas Pressure Calibration: Ensuring burners fire efficiently.
  2. Contactors & Relays: Inspecting for pitting and carbon buildup.
  3. Door Gaskets: Verifying the thermal seal on ovens and steamers.
  4. Scale Management: De-liming steamers and water-fed equipment. By catching a weak thermocouple or a dragging motor early, we prevent the “Friday night blowout” that closes your kitchen.

How often should a commercial kitchen have a PM visit?

For high-volume Seattle restaurants, a quarterly (every 3 months) inspection is the industry standard for maintaining safety and preventing major component failure.
