Don't Get Burned - Filta Fry Technician to the rescue

Employee injury is one area of restaurant management which seems to be a constant cause of budget heartbreak. As responsible business owners know, anywhere there is a fryer, there can be accidents. Anything from burn related issues to slip and falls- both being able to enjoy a safe working environment and save on insurance related issues is a vital part of any business establishment. Headlines happen all the time about burn related issues and lawsuits- so how can a smart business owner cut the chances of seeing these sorts of things take place?

One area that causes the most concern is the fryer. Oils are heated up to 345–375 °F, so the risk is definitely there for burn injuries, but also, think about the slip and fall risk. Improperly cleaning and maintaining a fryer can cause a greasy area around the unit itself, posing yet another potential risk.

Going even further to one less obvious but just as potentially risky area- oil deterioration and food particle build up. Often an excess of deterioration and build up can lead to not only rancid tasting food, but even toxic compound build up.

More and more restaurants and food service professionals are finding that it is simply no longer cost effective to have regular staff maintain their fryers- and more than that, keeping the staff safe and happy is tantamount to a smoothly running business. Being able to not only increase the safety but also cut on insurance and injury related losses is a vital part of running a food service the very best way possible. One more issue comes in at the end of the oil life cycle- toting that large tub of used oil out to the back of the business has caused more than one back injury, that's for sure. But how do you solve all of these problems in one easy way?

Enter the Filtafry technician. By offering weekly and sometimes biweekly micro filtering of the oil, as well as machine maintenance, the risks are significantly lowered for all areas of fryer related injury. Rather then endanger sometimes inadequately trained staff, a Filtafry technician is fully trained in all of the appropriate ways of not only safeguarding themselves, but also in filtering and cleaning the fryer, and ultimately disposing of the oil itself once it has reached the end of its use.


Apart from the obvious cost benefit to you here in preventing many accidents, there are also added benefits. In properly cleaning and maintaining your fryer- you will find that it lasts much longer, and does not suffer as many breakdowns. Going even further into the savings and benefits, having a Filtafry technician come out usually requires much less down time for your machine, what used to take a few hours, now only takes one. That and being able to see a longer lifespan in your oil? The savings certainly add up and add to the safety appeal of this valuable service.
