Since 1996 Filta has become a well-known name in the food service industry for help restaurants and other commercial kitchens reduce waste and save money in the operation of their deep fryers. Now, with FiltaCool, all of the benefits that have drastically changed the way that businesses approach frying are available in the cooler as well. Odor Control Over time odors accumulate in coolers, making them unpleasant for staff and suppliers. Even worse, noxious odors can be absorbed by some produce, negatively effecting their quality and taste. FiltaCool filters eliminate disagreeable smells in your cooler, leaving it smelling clean and your produce tasting fresh. Regulating Humidity and Bacteria Humidity is a major concern in commercial cooling units. Too little humidity and produce dries out, becoming unusable. Too much humidity is even worse. Excessive moisture attacks produce, destroying it on a cellular level. Additionally, when moisture freezes on cooling coils, the unit becomes less effective and has to work much harder to stabilize temperatures, resulting in shorter equipment life and greater energy use. Pooling moisture can also create a hazardous work environment as well, increase the risk of slip and fall injuries. Puddles also create a breeding ground for bacteria. FiltaCool will maintain an optimum level of humidity in your coolers, extending the life of produce and reducing bacteria. Eliminating Gas Buildup Fruits, vegetables and other perishable foodstuffs naturally give off gases. The buildup of gases, such as Pectin and Ethylene, in your cooler actually work against your foods, causing them to decay more rapidly. FiltaCool filters trap many of these gases, preventing buildup and prolonging the life of your perishable goods. Maintaining Temperature Bacterial growth and food spoilage can be greatly accelerated if the internal temperature of you coolers is allowed to get too high. Conversely, if temperatures allowed to drop produce can be damaged on a cellular level and freezing of moisture can negatively impact your cooler’s performance. FiltaCool has been shown in independent tests to reduce cooler temperatures by 2-5 degrees, making it easier for you system to maintain the optimal temperature range of 35-38 degrees Fahrenheit without expending as much energy. Controlling Costs FiltaCool provides all of the quality and cost effectiveness that has made the Filta name such a powerhouse in the food service industry over the past decade. When you use FiltaCool filters in your coolers you can expect to save big. You will immediately see a dramatic difference in the quality and longevity of your produce, meaning less loss due to wastage and a better product for you customers. You will also see a sharp decrease in the amount of energy your coolers consume. Most FiltaCool users see a drop of about 10% in energy use. Because your coolers won’t have to work as hard they will experience less wear and tear as well. FiltaCool can help cut costly cooler repairs and extend the life of your coolers by 33%-44%.
