How Serious Is the Heat Problem in a Commercial Kitchen Environment?
In the hotel and food service industry, the commercial kitchen environment is naturally exposed to high temperatures. Cooking equipment, gas burners and the staff’s own body heat combine to create an environment where the temperature becomes extremely high. When there is no proper ventilation, staff members sweat excessively, making it difficult for them to work.
What Were the Main Challenges Faced by Odisha Equipment without Symphony Commercial Coolers?
- Ambient temperature and staff health: The heat generated by kitchen equipment and the staff’s own body heat combine to create a high-temperature environment. When there is no proper ventilation, staff members sweat excessively and experience health-related problems.
- Staff attention and fatigue: Heat causes staff fatigue and makes working difficult. As a result, new staff members leave after working for only a few days, forcing the management to repeatedly recruit and train employees.
- Limitations of conventional solutions: Previously, air washer units were recommended within the industry for kitchen ventilation. However, they had their own limitations, such as requiring more space, civil work costs, high electricity consumption and consistently higher maintenance expenses.
