BENEFITS OF USING THE FOG TANK®

Save Money, Increase Staff Productivity And Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Labor Savings

The FOG Tank® eliminates scrubbing time, reducing daily stewarding department work by three or more hours.

The FOG Tank’s soak-and-rinse philosophy eliminates work for staff members, which can either be used to reduce overhead or improve the bottom line. With the state and federal minimum wage ranging from $7.25 – $20.00 per hour and the total cost of employment adding 25% to that figure, labor costs can take a big chunk out of your operating budget. From day one, the FOG Tank will lower your kitchen overhead by thousands of dollars a year. It will reduce your kitchen’s cleaning and sanitizing costs by as much as 85% of your current labor costs.

Effortless Cleaning

Tiger Carbon Remover Powder efficiently and safely cleans your equipment without the need to scrub anything .   

As fats, oils, and grease accumulate on metal and aluminum equipment, carbon builds up over time and forms a thick carbon crust, making them difficult and time-consuming to clean. Excessive carbon buildup also creates a heat barrier that doesn’t allow food to cook properly – which ultimately affects the quality of your cuisine. With the FOG Tank’s non-caustic, non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and fully biodegradable Tiger Carbon Remover Powder, your items are cleaned, sanitized, and ready to use with little effort. You will never have to scrub another pot!

Lower Energy Bills

The FOG Tank can save a single restaurant location over $3,000 per year in energy costs.

According to the Department of Energy, restaurants use up to 3 times more energy than other commercial facilities. Much of this energy comes from heating water to clean equipment as well as heating stoves to cook food.

Standard 3-compartment sinks and power sinks must be regularly refilled with hot water to maintain the appropriate sanitary conditions, and dish and pot washer machines dispose of the heated water with each rack washed. The equipment cleaned in traditional sinks also becomes coated in a carbon crust that makes it harder to heat on a stovetop, creating an inefficient cooking process that wastes gas.

The FOG Tank’s water is kept at a constant 185 degrees Fahrenheit, and the equipment comes out perfectly clean and sanitized. By switching to the FOG Tank, you potentially eliminate the need to heat up to 740,000 gallons/year and save up to 34,000 Kw-hours/year per kitchen.

Space Saving

The FOG Tank uses up to 60% less space than a 3-compartment sink and fits under the counter.

As little as 28 inches wide and 33 inches tall, the FOG Tank is designed to fit under a standard kitchen counter. It’s the perfect space-saving solution that will deliver some of the highest returns on investment in kitchens of any size.

Less Water Usage

The FOG Tank eliminates scrubbing time, reducing daily stewarding department work by 3 or more hours. 

A typical 3-compartment sink wastes approximately 960 gallons of water per day (if refilled up to 8 times a day). Because of the powerful Tiger Carbon Remover Powder, the water in your FOG Tank only needs to be refilled once per month, making it possible for your restaurant to use as little as 40 gallons of water per month! FOG Tank utilizes the least amount of water for optimal cleaning results, keeping water at a constant 185 degrees Fahrenheit, critical for sanitary cleaning that keeps your kitchen equipment bacteria-free. Further, our cleaning powder is completely biodegradable, so you can safely dispose of used FOG Tank water in kitchen drains.
