Possible Causes
Detergent concentration too low, Water temperature too low, Excessive grease load from cookware, Clogged filters reducing circulation
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Hot water and chemicals are present; wear appropriate PPE.
- Increase detergent concentration: Consult with your chemical supplier to adjust detergent dosing to handle grease load.
- Verify wash temperature: Confirm wash tank reaches the recommended temperature for grease removal (often 150–160°F). Troubleshoot heaters if low.
- Clean filters and tank: Remove and clean all strainers and scrap baskets. Scrub tank surfaces to remove existing grease film.
- Pre-scrap and pre-rinse: Instruct staff to scrape and, if necessary, pre-rinse heavily greased items before loading.
Monitor results over several days and fine-tune chemical settings as needed.
