Combi Oven Maintenance

Proper maintenance of your combi oven is essential to ensure its longevity and optimal performance. Key areas to focus on include:

Limescale can accumulate in water connections, leading to blockages in valves and pipes. To prevent this:

  • Regular Descaling: Implement a routine descaling schedule to remove mineral deposits.
  • Water Treatment Systems: Maintain water softeners, filters, and cartridges to minimise limescale formation. Regular checks and replacements are crucial for effective operation.

At the end of each service or shift, thoroughly clean the oven to prevent food residue from hardening and burning, which can impair efficiency. This includes wiping down interior surfaces, cleaning trays and racks, and ensuring no debris is left inside.

The door seal is vital for retaining heat within the oven. Daily inspection and cleaning are necessary to identify and address any gaps or defects. Damaged seals can lead to heat loss, resulting in increased energy consumption and uneven cooking.

Avoid slamming the oven door, as this can damage components and compromise the door seal. Training staff to handle the oven gently will help reduce the need for repairs and maintain the appliance’s integrity.

Catering Equipment Planned Preventative Maintenance Contracts

Need PPM For Your Business?

Our expert kitchen equipment engineers will be able to guide you on the best contract for you catering needs.

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) is a proactive approach to maintaining equipment and systems to prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.

In commercial kitchens, PPM ensures that vital equipment like extractor fans, refrigeration units, and cooking appliances are regularly inspected, cleaned, and serviced to operate efficiently and safely.

By scheduling routine maintenance, businesses can extend the lifespan of their equipment, reduce the risk of sudden failures, and comply with health and safety regulations. PPM not only improves operational reliability but also helps avoid downtime, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted workflow in the kitchen.

Yes, daily maintenance tasks include:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the interior and exterior surfaces after each use to prevent food residue buildup.
  • Inspecting door seals: Check for wear and tear to ensure proper sealing.
  • Descaling: Regularly descale the water system to prevent limescale buildup.

First, check for obvious issues such as tripped circuit breakers or disconnected power sources. If the problem persists, it could be due to a faulty heating element or thermostat, which requires professional inspection and repair.

This depends on several factors:

  • Age of the dishwasher: If it's over 10 years old, replacement might be more cost-effective in the long run.
  • Cost of repairs: If repairs are frequent and costly, investing in a new unit could save money on ongoing maintenance.
  • Efficiency: Newer models are often more energy and water-efficient, which could lower operating costs. It’s advisable to get a quote from a technician and compare it to the cost of a new dishwasher.

Utilise water softeners or filtration systems to reduce mineral content in the water supply. Regular descaling, as per the manufacturer's guidelines, is also crucial to prevent limescale accumulation.
