Pass Through Dishwashers

Commercial Pass-through dishwashers  are also known as hoodstyle and upright dishwashers. Typically they are floor mounted and located withstainless steel entry and exit or outlet benches either side in the dishwashing area ofyour kitchen. The dishwasher entrybench should have a sink located approximately 250mm outside the dishwasher. Itis also a good idea to consider the use of a pre-rinse arm at this sink. The speed of commercial units also requires ahigher power input so make sure that you have the additional power availablefor use in your kitchen.Things to look for ** ** When buying or replacing a pass through dishwasherthere are several factors to consider. Better model dishwashers will save youmoney and help save the environment as well.Water Consumption   – goneare the days when dishwashers use 7 or more litres per wash cycle. These daysyou should expect your dishwasher to use between 2.5 to 4.0 litres per cycle,reducing the demand on your hot water service.
