Picture this: your foodservice client has a dishwasher that is struggling to meet demands on a busy night. Because of health code requirements, high temperature water is required to ensure dishes are sanitized properly. Staff is waiting to turn tables and customers are anxious to be seated. Your client’s kitchen is experiencing a bottleneck—and they are about to call you in the middle of the night for help.

As a service provider you can quell many of your client’s worries with a dishwasher booster heater, used in conjunction with commercial dishwashers. A hot water booster heater helps “boost” the water temperature needed for proper sanitation.

According to the FDA, hot water temperatures must first be 140° F to activate dishwashing detergent. Then during the wash cycle, the water must be 165-185°F. Once all food residue is removed and microbes have nothing to cling onto, dishes are safe to use.

Booster heaters provide higher water temperatures increasing the amount of grease and grime a dishwasher can cut through. On the final rinse, booster heaters provide the temperature necessary for dishes and flatware to self-dry (180°F). With sanitized self-drying dishes, a restaurant can continue to serve guests in a timely fashion.

Booster heaters comparatively require less space and installation time than full-size water heaters. Installing a Hubbell Expeditor booster heater is quick and easy, saving you and your client time and money (as well as less time worrying about sanitation).

Hubbell Expeditor engineered booster heaters solve dishwashing hot water needs and they are easy to install and service. They are built for resilience and longevity, without the need for an internal lining which becomes a point of failure. With features like foam insulation and a digital temperature controller (to keep hot water at the exact desired temperature), our electric boosters simplify service work and provide accurate and reliable operation.

Reliability is not just a word for us – it's everything we do.
