Foodservice Equipment Information
Commercial kitchen appliances produce a lot of heat and can account for up to 35% of your restaurant’s energy costs. Upgrading to energy-efficient equipment uses less natural gas, electricity, and water and can reduce your energy costs by as much as 75% compared to standard foodservice equipment.

ENERGY STAR certified hot food holding cabinets use less energy and generate less heat in your commercial kitchen because they’re better insulated to reduce heat loss. Features like magnetic door gaskets, auto-door closures, and Dutch doors can also prevent heat loss and make ENERGY STAR certified hot food holding cabinets 70% more energy efficient than standard models.

Instant rebates between $250-$750 per unit are available through Energize Connecticut based on the size of your food holding cabinet.
Energy-efficient fryers come in standard and large vat sizes. They offer you shorter cook times and better insulation to reduce heat loss when they’re idle.

Induction cooktops use an electromagnetic field below a glass surface to heat up cookware by transferring current directly to it. This cuts out the step of heating up a burner and transferring the heat to a pot, so they have potential for up to 90% energy efficiency. Their efficiency means they are less likely to create ambient heat in kitchens, which could lower cooling costs in warmer months. They also offer several other benefits like advanced safety features and temperature controls for more precise cooking. (Source: ENERGY STAR)
