Rules For A Kitchen High Cleaning

A cool room is an important part of any commercial kitchen. That is where all temperature-sensitive products such as fruit, vegetables, meat or seafood are stored. The cleanliness of this area because of its function is crucial to food safety.

Unfortunately, many businesses don’t pay enough attention to their cool rooms. This area is an in-and-out zone during the day and employees do not spend much time there. It is easy to see how it may be overlooked during a daily clean.

Due to this tendency, it is very important to remember to hire professional services for scheduled cool room clean-ups. Without them, you are risking the safety of your products kept there.

Cool Room Cleaning Procedures

One of the biggest dangers of a poorly maintained cool room is mould growing on walls. This can happen when hot air enters an area when a low temperature is maintained. You can try to prevent it by checking your ventilation as well as reminding your staff to never leave the door to the cool room open. The insulation should be occasionally inspected for leaks and cracks.

Kitchen employees should also frequently check the expiry date of the products stored. Not serving them to customers is one thing but even keeping them in a cool room can cause issues. When products get mouldy, it is very easy for the fungus to spread to other products and walls.

Wiping surfaces, vacuuming and removing expired items are all good daily maintenance strategies. As they may not be enough, it is good to have a scheduled cool room clean done at calculated intervals.
