Catering Equipment Servicing FAQ
-
Why Service all equipment?In my experience, a well-managed kitchen runs more smoothly when a service contract is in place. This allows the kitchen staff to focus on the food and we can focus on the maintenance of the catering equipment. Having a routine annual service will help reduce your operational running costs and also will help reduce unnecessary breakdowns.
-
Is there a legal requirement?It is recommended and best practice to have Gas Commercial Catering equipment checked annually, however, it’s a grey area with regards the servicing of other equipment within a Commercial kitchen. We come across new customers who have never had their non-gas equipment serviced, whereas others will have all of their Commercial equipment serviced every 6 months or at least annually.
-
What is involved in a service?We believe in the ‘best practice’ of servicing Commercial Catering Equipment at least once a year. By having a 12 monthly service it allows our engineers to identify any potential issues before they happen. Many breakdowns are due to equipment neglect, such as blocked pipes or clogged up evaporators. It’s a legal requirement to have gas commercial catering equipment checked annually, however, it’s a grey area with regards the servicing of other equipment within a Commercial kitchen. We come across new customers who have never had their non-gas equipment serviced, whereas others will have all of their Commercial equipment serviced every 6 months or at least annually. Glasswashers and Dishwashers are no exception, and one of the major causes of breakdowns is due to limescale build-up which can initially be hidden from sight. During Dishwasher and Glasswasher servicing our engineers will de-scale machines and will ensure all of the internal components are in good operational order.

Gas Safety Checks
If you require an annual Commercial Gas safety check then call our service desk to arrange a visit.
Remember it’s illegal to operate Commercial gas equipment without a valid Gas Safety Certificate.
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)
Waiting for equipment to break down can be a costly experience, not just financially but through lost cooking time. The chances are the equipment will break down at the most crucial time for your business. Taking steps to reduce the likelihood of this happening is the essence of PPM.
Through PPM with EquipCare we can offer the following benefits:
​Scheduled and regular visits by qualified service engineers
​Problems spotted before they arise, avoiding extra call-out charges and repair costs
​Equipment serviced and re-calibrated to ensure optimum performance levels and savings in energy costs
​Emergency breakdown cover coupled with a fast response time
​Annual gas safety checks and certificates
​A minimal chance of any equipment being out of order for any period of time
​Equipment being brought up to insurer's requirements
Importance of Catering Equipment Servicing
A lot of break downs are preventable through routine cleaning, and our engineers will point out any areas where this can be improved. This will ensure that equipment works at peak efficiency and will reduce the number of breakdowns. Having a regular annual service will ensure lower running costs and fewer breakdowns throughout the year.
