Cleaning and Maintaining

Prep tables are known as one of the most neglected pieces of equipment in the kitchen since they are high use and can be difficult to move for cleaning. Use mild cleaners when cleaning gaskets. Bi-monthly cleaning is recommended since regular cleaning ensures optimum efficiency and can lower energy costs.
