HOBART hits top marks
for Downe House School
“We are delighted with the end results and the way the project has gone. We had a great team of people working with us.
Finishing late was not an option and we have not only managed to deliver on time, we also achieved all of our objectives.”
Catering for more than 600 covers in a sitting, Sodexo were
tasked with the project of finding a dishwasher solution that
would reduce the environmental impact and congestion
caused by the old system. This meant installing a completely
new wash up area, a conveyor belt system, state of the art
waste management system and a utensils washer – with the
added pressure to do so in just 3 weeks before term
started again.
A HOBART Flight Type Warewasher was chosen for its
energy saving capabilities, together with a HOBART UX
Utensil Washer and an Ecolo Waste Management System.
Why the FTP comes top of the class
It reduces water usage and has a more efficient wash system which results
in a lower chemical consumption of up to 80%.
The Heat Pump Systems will reduce the school’s energy consumption by up
to 23kW per hour and provide a reduction in CO2 emissions of 250,000kg.
The energy consumption to be saved offers a potential payback on investment
in less than 30 months – with savings of over £40k in 10 years.
The catering staff can now enjoy all the benefits of their new wash up system,
including a front loading HOBART UX Utensils Washer, meaning no more
bending over a steaming hot sink.
