COMMERCIAL SOAK TANKS


Commercial kitchens are notoriously hard on their equipment. Pots, pans, hood filters, and other implements can become greasy or have carbon buildup that can affect their performance and shorten their lifespan. Ordinarily, this can be prevented only by labor-intensive washing and scrubbing. However, there is a solution that can make cleaning these items much easier. The FOG Tank® is a revolutionary piece of commercial kitchen cleaning equipment that dramatically cuts down on the amount of time required. These heated commercial soak tanks clean metal implements with little effort.

How Fog Tank® Works

This commercial kitchen cleaning equipment makes washing metal items as simple as submerging them and letting it do all the work. After scraping away any food residue, just add your dirty items into the tank. When added to the water, our proprietary non-caustic, non-toxic, and eco-friendly Tiger Carbon Remover Powder® transforms the FOG Tank into one of the most powerful pieces of commercial warewashing equipment available.

When the cycle is complete, all you need to do is rinse away any carbon fragments that may be left behind. Whatever metal implements you put into the tank will emerge completely clean and sanitized, no scrubbing required.

We offer these tanks in a variety of sizes to meet your needs, whether you purchase or rent them. The special chemical solution is good for 30 days before it requires refreshing, making this a sustainable choice.

The FOG Tank cleans:

  • Pots
  • Pans
  • Vent hood filters
  • Metal kitchen equipment

Saving You Time and Money

There are a number of ways in which using the FOG Tank can save your business a considerable amount of time and money. These include:

  • Water: You’ll save thousands of gallons of water compared to a traditional three-compartment sink or dish machine because the FOG Tank only needs to be refilled every 30 days.
  • Chemicals: The non-toxic and fully biodegradable powder used in this process only needs to be added to the tank once a month, as opposed to other cleansers that only work for a few items at a time.
  • Labor: Because there is no scrubbing needed, the FOG Tank saves your kitchen staff a significant amount of time.
  • Electricity: This stainless-steel tank is fully insulated, which enables it to maintain its working temperature of 185 degrees Fahrenheit without using additional power.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular cleaning products in my commercial kitchen?

Of course, you could try to clean your kitchen implements with regular dish soap the way you would at home. However, the FOG Tank offers superior cleaning with much less work. There’s no scrubbing needed, and our proprietary cleaning solution kills bacteria and cuts through tough carbon buildup that regular dish soap won’t.

How can I easily clean a restaurant kitchen hood filter?

Cleaning your hood filters is easy with the FOG Tank. Just put them in the tank and let our powerful commercial kitchen cleaning equipment do all the work. Your employees will be free to focus on other things while they wait for the FOG Tank to finish its cleaning cycle, after which all they’ll need to do is rinse away any carbon particles that might remain.

How often should commercial kitchen equipment be cleaned?

Keeping your kitchen equipment safe and clean is an ongoing job. Your items should be cleaned at least once a day to prevent foodborne illnesses and to remain in compliance with your local health codes. Fortunately, the FOG Tank makes it easy to keep up with this schedule because all you need to do is drop your metal kitchen equipment inside and let it run through its cycle.

The resources you can save by using a FOG Tank means you’ll experience a return on your investment within six to eight months under most circumstances. To rent or purchase one for your operation or get more information about it, reach out and get in touch with us today.
