Keeping It Fresh: No More Scary Gaskets!

Posted on

Age is a beautiful thing, but not when it comes to gaskets. If your gaskets are starting to show their years, they could be costing you a pretty penny. As gaskets age, they lose their elasticity and sealing power. It's like trying to keep a secret when you're 90 โ€“ it just doesn't work as well. Replacing aged gaskets can help save on energy costs, improve the longevity of your appliances, and keep your kitchen running smoothly.

Why Should You Care?

Let's cut to the chase โ€“ ignoring gasket maintenance can be a recipe for disaster. Higher energy bills, inconsistent temperatures, and wasted food can all result from gaskets that are past their prime. Plus, gaskets that aren't doing their job can put extra stress on your appliances, leading to costly repairs or replacements. In the busy world of restaurant management, who has time for that?

How to Check Your Gaskets: The Kitchen Detective Guide

Okay, it's not quite as exciting as a mystery novel, but it's a handy skill to have. Here's how to be your kitchen's own detective:

Visual Inspection: Look for visible cracks, tears, or signs of wear and tear. If you spot anything unusual, it's time to consider a replacement.

Dollar Bill Test: Close the refrigerator or freezer door on a dollar bill. If you can pull it out without much resistance, it's time for a new gasket.

Light Test: Step into the walk-in and shut the door behind you(make sure you have a safe escape plan!). Is there light coming in from the outside? This is a bad sign! You will definitely need to take action.

Other Areas of Concern:

If you have glass doors that are having trouble opening or closing, drawers getting stuck, etc., fix it now, not later. Like gaskets, waiting too long for these simple repairs can cost valuable money and time. To keep your kitchen in top shape hygienically, we also recommend regular replacement of cutting boards and strip curtains.
