Work smarter, not harder, and save money with these energy-smart solutions.
Do not preheat longer than the manufacturer recommends. For underfired charbroilers, reduce your pre-heating time to 15 or 20 minutes.
If you turn off your commercial charbroiler for three hours every day, you will save more than $1,350 per year.
Griddles have thermostats, allowing you to reduce the heat. This means you will consume less energy. Models with grooves will even leave “grill marks” on your food just like a commercial charbroiler.
Use it to capacity, but do not overload it. The trapped heat could burn out the burner and the liners.
As your charbroiler reaches the end of its service life, metal fatigue and corrosion set in, causing longer cooking times and other signs of inefficiency. If your normally blue flame turns orange or you notice uneven heating, you are wasting energy and it is time to replace your charbroiler.
