Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Salty Squid, a popular seafood takeaway in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to upgrade their cramped prep area to cope with the summer rush. Their old setup involved multiple small fridges, which was inefficient and slowed down their workflow.
"The Inomak prep counter has completely streamlined our assembly line. Everything is right there, perfectly chilled. We’re getting orders out much quicker now, even when we’re slammed. The stainless steel top is also a dream to clean at the end of a long shift."
Robert Davies – Head Chef
Since installing the BPZP7300 prep counter, The Salty Squid has reduced its average order prep time by over 25% during peak hours.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure the unit is on a flat, level surface to allow doors to seal correctly.
- Leave at least 10cm of space around the back and sides for proper air circulation.
- Before plugging in, let the unit stand for 3-4 hours to allow refrigerant to settle.
- Wipe down all interior surfaces with a food-safe sanitiser before loading any produce.
Keeping It Going
- Clean the interior surfaces and shelves weekly to maintain hygiene.
- Wipe down the magnetic door seals regularly to prevent mould and ensure a tight seal.
- Check and clear the condenser coils of dust and debris every couple of months.
- Avoid placing hot pans or containers directly onto the stainless steel worktop.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size Gastronorm pans can I use in the top section?
A: The top unit is designed to hold up to six GN 1/4 size pans, with a maximum depth of 150mm per pan.
Q: Is the stainless steel easy to clean?
A: Absolutely. It's made from high-grade AISI 304 stainless steel with features like removable gaskets and clip-on shelf guides to make cleaning simple.
Q: Does it need to be plumbed into a drain?
A: No, it features an automatic evaporation system for condensate water, so there's no need for any external drainage.
Q: What power socket does this double hinged door gastronorm prep counter need?
A: It runs on a standard 13 amp supply and comes with a fitted plug, so you can plug it into any standard UK socket.
Q: Can I put a pizza oven or other hot equipment on the worktop?
A: We'd advise against it. The stainless steel worktop is designed for food preparation, not for holding heavy, heat-generating appliances.
Q: What does 'automatic defrost' mean for me?
A: It means the unit takes care of itself by periodically warming the cooling elements to melt any ice build-up, ensuring it runs efficiently without any manual intervention from you.
Q: Do the doors stay open when I'm loading stock?
A: Yes, the doors are self-closing for energy efficiency, but they are designed to stay open when pushed past a 90-degree angle for easy loading and unloading.
Q: Are the shelves adjustable?
A: The clip-on guide system allows for some flexibility in positioning the GN1/1 shelves inside the refrigerated cabinet.

Explore more from InomakHow Forced Air Cooling Protects Your Produce
Ever noticed how a fan oven cooks food more evenly than a conventional one? Forced air circulation in this refrigerated prep counter works on a very similar principle. Instead of just letting cold air sit (static cooling), a fan actively circulates it throughout the entire cabinet. This means there are no warmer spots near the door or colder spots at the back. Every single ingredient, from the lettuce in the bottom to the tomatoes on the top shelf, is kept at a consistent, safe temperature. It's the key to reducing spoilage and ensuring your food stays fresher for longer.
