RATIONAL is calling for kitchen staff to follow the cleaning procedures recommended by their machine’s manufacturer to keep combi steamers operating safely and efficiently. The market-leader says that, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, some operators are choosing to delay cleaning to save money. Trevor Lath, national service director of RATIONAL UK speaks out ‘We are already seeing an increase in service call outs arising from this, it’s a problem that will be affecting all combi steamer brands’

Why is it important to clean my RATIONAL Combi Oven?

•  Fire Risk - Without regular oven cleaning it will lead to a build-up of dirt and scale covering the surfaces of your oven which results in a higher risk of fire.
•  Oven Quality - Cleaning your oven maintains the high quality of the stainless steel and helps to avoid break downs.
•  Ensured Longevity - An oven covered in dirt and grease from previous foods will have to work hard not only to heat but also to maintain the proper cooking temperature, this will result in the oven wearing out faster.

RATIONAL have advised that; ‘Combi Steamers should be cleaned every day as part of the kitchen routine. Most quality machines have self-cleaning programs that make what would be a time consuming and unpleasant chore effortless. On RATIONAL’s new iCombi Pro the iCareSystem tells operators when they need to run the programme to clean the combi, so it minimises the use of chemicals – because it only asks for a clean when it is necessary.’
