ERA pre-rinse spray use in commercial kitchens
The ERA pre-rinse spray unit supports fast and consistent rinsing in busy professional dishwashing areas. Dishwashers usually perform better when excess food, grease and residue are rinsed off beforehand, helping reduce repeat wash cycles. This system keeps the workflow smooth during peak hours.
The wide spray angle allows efficient rinsing of pots, pans and GN containers. Its flexible movement helps reach awkward areas, which is essential for restaurants, canteens and kitchens with high daily volume.
ERA construction and key advantages
The ERA construction includes a metal frame, spring support and a durable flexible hose that ensures stable movement. The ergonomic spray head allows quick flow control without losing precision. Kitchens that require reliable rinsing solutions often choose this type of unit.
Stainless steel components and high-quality rubber details help maintain durability under heavy use. Precise spray control can support water efficiency and improve daily workflow when large amounts of dishes need rinsing quickly.
How to choose the right pre-rinse unit for the dishwashing area
The selection usually depends on kitchen workload, dish types and mounting options. Larger pots and pans may require a stronger spray head and a longer hose for easier maneuvering. Smaller kitchens often choose a more compact setup.
Before purchase, it is worth checking the hose length, material durability and compatibility with the existing faucet. Mounting height and movement range affect day-to-day comfort and efficiency.

Daily maintenance and operating specifics
Regular cleaning of the spray head helps maintain consistent spray performance. The mesh insert should be rinsed periodically to prevent blockage caused by limescale and solid particles.
The hose and spring mechanism benefit from routine visual checks to spot cracks or wear. In high-usage environments, checking the tightness of mounting points helps prevent leaks and movement restrictions.
