How does preventative maintenance on hot beverage equipment help the environment?
There’s no doubt you will be clued up on all the reasons why using a water filter to proactively maintain your hot beverage equipment is a good idea. In a nutshell: great tasting and consistent brews, happy customers, as well as the prevention costly equipment breakdowns.
But have you ever considered the environmental benefit of using a water filter on your beverage equipment?
We know that sustainability is of increasing importance to the hot beverage sector and continually improving sustainable practices is an ongoing challenge.
The good news is that by investing in preventative maintenance, you’re not only avoiding the obvious stress caused by equipment breakdowns, you’re also extending the life of your equipment and saving energy costs. A build-up of limescale can significantly increase the energy your equipment uses, which not only has an impact on your pocket, but also the environment.
Maintaining and repairing equipment plays a crucial role in supporting a circular economy, reducing waste and supporting continual use of resources. What’s more, stopping hot beverage equipment from going to landfill prematurely not only benefits café operators financially, but also the planet, as less waste is created.
When it comes to serving an excellent cup time and time again, ensuring your staff have the knowledge to fix and effectively maintain hot beverage equipment is vital. Make sure you’re protecting it against damage with the correct preventative maintenance measures from the start, rather than waiting until it breaks down or isn’t running at its optimum.
With this in mind, don’t forget to implement maintenance schedules, so that your water filters are exchanged on time and continue to optimise your water supply.
