One wrong move, like a sink that&#8217;s not working or a clogged drain, and your restaurant could be shut down until it&#8217;s fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Restaurant owners simply don&#8217;t have the option of having clogged appliances that are out of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, for a couple of days your bathroom could be out of order, but if a health and safety inspector finds out that a toilet or sink is clogged so employees aren&#8217;t washing their hands, that could spell bad news for your business. Here are some handy tips for <a href=\"\/plumbing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">commercial plumbing in Hampton, NJ.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Health and Safety Are Priorities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We mentioned earlier that health and safety are high risks when plumbing appliances are not working in a restaurant, but we&#8217;d like to talk about how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, any restaurant owner will know that a certain amount of handwashing stations are required in a restaurant of a given size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These handwashing stations <em>must<\/em> be working properly with enough soap to make hands clean, otherwise, it&#8217;s a health risk and food could be contaminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter if your employees are going next door to wash their hands, your restaurant will still be held responsible for this. That&#8217;s why all of your sinks are so important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Washing Produce, Hands, and Dishes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Produce needs to be properly washed in sinks that have access to clean water. Usually, a sink is going to access the city&#8217;s main water line, and commercial properties have unique access to powerful clean water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in some cases, that water line could be ruptured or you could have a leak that reduces water pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not acceptable, since your produce might need to be washed, your employees have to wash their hands, and your restaurant&#8217;s dishes need to be cleaned as well. Even a slight drop in water pressure can be a catastrophe for your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comfort Is Essential for Customers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget about comfort! Customers are constantly rating restaurants on new apps where even the slightest inconvenience will cause a 5-star restaurant to become a 4-star one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, restaurant owners might not like that (we understand why) but it&#8217;s a reality of the situation and it&#8217;s why a broken sink or toilet in the bathroom could be the difference between a 5-star review and a 3-star review if a customer is picky enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s try and keep things operating smoothly so customers have a great time when possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Professional Difference<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these fixes might feel like things you need to do in the moment, but that&#8217;s unfortunately not the case. A plumbing emergency, like a sink that won&#8217;t work or a clogged drain that&#8217;s halting your cooking line, requires professional support in order to be alleviated properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get in touch with a professional plumber to have it adequately fixed and for your restaurant to go back to normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"\/contact\/schedule-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact Schaible&#8217;s Mechanical<\/a>&nbsp;if you need help with your commercial plumbing.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One wrong move, like a sink that&#8217;s not working or a clogged drain, and your restaurant could be shut down until it&#8217;s fixed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[81],"tags":[97,89],"class_list":["post-457","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-plumbing-service","tag-commercial-plumbing","tag-hampton"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=457"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":460,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457\/revisions\/460"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=457"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=457"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schaiblesmechanical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=457"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
