The FiltaCool Solution
For a restaurant owner, it can be extremely disheartening to walk into your cooler and realize that a substantial portion of your produce has gone bad before you could even use it. Even worse are the times when frozen condensation causes your cooler to stop working properly, raising the temperature and spoiling everything. Fortunately, the folks at the Filta Group have a solution to stop spoilage in its tracks and improve cooler function to help eliminate waste and save you money.
What is FiltaCool?
FiltaCool is a refrigeration filter specifically designed to meet and exceed the needs of commercial coolers. They are small, unobtrusive devices that make a tremendous impact on the environment inside of your cooler and the way that your cooler operates. They cost very little to have installed (about $12 per month) and more than pay for themselves by cutting loss and waste.
What Do FiltaCool Filters Do?
FiltaCool filters impact your commercial cooler in a number of ways. Firstly, the act to regulate the humidity inside of your cooler unit. As you well know, if the humidity inside your cooler gets too high, you produce spoils very quickly. On the other hand, if conditions get too dry your products get dehydrated, cracked and unusable. FiltaCool filters help to regulate humidity and keep it at the optimal level for your produce and other perishables.
The benefits of humidity regulation extend beyond just making your perishables more durable. By limiting humidity, FiltaCool filters also discourage bacterial growth. Reduced humidity also helps your cooler run more efficiently by preventing freezing. Your cooler will use less energy to maintain a constant temperature. Because your cooler isn’t working as hard, it will require less maintenance and could even last several years beyond its expected operational lifetime.
Other Benefits
FiltaCool filters also trap the gasses that are given off naturally by produce. These gasses, when trapped inside a cool, accumulate and cause produce to decompose more quickly. FiltaCool filters prevent this accumulation so that your produce lasts longer.
FiltaCool filters also trap noxious odors that build up in coolers. Unpleasant odors create an unpleasant work environment. Odors can also be absorbed by some produce, tainting their taste and rendering them unfit for use.
Cool Savings
When you use FiltaCool filters in your walk-in or other commercial refrigeration unit you will begin to see big savings right away. Your perishable goods will last longer and you will lose less money to waste. FiltaCool filters allows you to put more of your products on the customers’ tables and less into the waste bin.
FiltaCool filters also help you save money on energy use and equipment maintenance. Coolers that have FiltaCool filters installed are able to run much more efficiently, usually showing a 10% decrease in energy usage. Since they aren’t working so hard to keep your products cool, they experience less wear and tear. That means less money spent on expensive repairs and a longer life for your cooler. FiltaCool filters are just another way that Filta helps your business run more efficiently and saves you money.
