Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Hobart LXEC 3 a low temp or high temp dishwasher?
The LXEC 3 is a low temperature chemical sanitizing undercounter dishwasher. It sanitizes using a chemical sanitizer rather than relying on high temperature final rinse water for sanitization. - What does chemical sanitizing mean on a commercial dishwasher?
Chemical sanitizing uses an approved sanitizer, commonly chlorine based or similar, introduced during the wash or rinse process to achieve sanitizing results at lower water temperatures. This can help reduce energy use and eliminate the need for a booster heater in many setups. - Does the LXEC 3 run on standard 120V power?
Yes, this model is designed for 120V operation, making it a practical option for locations that do not have higher voltage electrical service available for dishwashing equipment. - What type of business is the Hobart LXEC 3 best for?
It is well suited for restaurants, cafés, bars, small kitchens, and light to moderate volume foodservice operations that need an undercounter commercial dishwasher with chemical sanitizing performance. - Do I need a booster heater with a low temp chemical sanitizing dishwasher?
In many cases, no. Low temperature chemical sanitizing machines are designed to sanitize without a high temperature final rinse booster. Always confirm your local health code requirements and ensure proper sanitizer setup and concentration for compliance. - How do I know I am using the correct sanitizer concentration?
Use test strips recommended for your sanitizer type to verify concentration during operation. Keeping sanitizer levels within the approved range helps ensure sanitation results and supports health code compliance.
