Charlotte Rayner – Commercial Cleaning View Profile →

  • Pro: The integrated chemical pumps make daily operation incredibly simple and  foolproof.
  • Con: It is a gravity drain only model, so you must check your site's plumbing first.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Hotel in Torquay, Devon, found their existing dishwasher was constantly breaking down, creating huge delays during their busy summer season and  negatively impacting service.

"We were at our wits' end, with kitchen porters washing plates by hand just to keep up. The InstaWash IW100 has been a revelation. It's fast, reliable, and  our crockery has never been cleaner. The team loves how simple it is to use."

Ben Williams – General Manager

After installing the InstaWash, the hotel completely eliminated its washing-up backlog, improving kitchen workflow and  increasing table turnover by an estimated 15% during peak periods.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is on a level, stable surface, ideally between two tabling units for a smooth workflow.
  • This machine must be hardwired into a suitable single-phase supply by a qualified commercial electrician.
  • Connect the water inlet hose and  check your waste outlet is lower than the machine's drain point.
  • Prime the detergent and  rinse aid pumps as per the user manual before running the first wash cycle.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean the internal filters at the end of every day to prevent food debris build-up and  ensure top performance.
  • Regularly wipe down the stainless steel exterior and  control panel with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Keep an eye on the detergent and  rinse aid levels and  top them up as needed to guarantee sparkling results.
  • Periodically run a cleaning cycle with a commercial descaler, especially if you're in a hard water area.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Pass-Through Dishwasher

Finding the perfect dishwasher can be tricky. Here’s what to consider to make sure you get the right fit for your business.

Check Your Space

Pass-through models need entry and  exit tabling to work efficiently. Measure your available floorspace, including the vertical clearance needed for the hood, before you buy.

Confirm Your Power Supply

This is a powerful 6KW hardwired unit. Always confirm your kitchen has the correct single-phase electrical supply and  book a qualified electrician for installation.

Drain Type Matters

Gravity drain models like this are brilliantly simple, but they need a low-level drain point. If your drain is higher up the wall, you'll need to look for a machine with a built-in drain pump.

Calculate Your Capacity Needs

Think about your peak-hour covers. A machine like the InstaWash IW100 with a 1000 plate/hour capacity is ideal for very busy sites that can't afford to wait for clean dishes.

Don't Forget Water Quality

If your business is in a hard water area, investing in an external water softener is a wise move. It will prevent limescale build-up, protect your machine, and  give you better results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 'pass-through' or 'hood type' dishwasher mean?

A: It's a large, free-standing unit where you slide a basket of dirty dishes in one side and  pull it out clean on the other. It's designed for a fast, continuous workflow in busy kitchens.

Q: How many plates can this machine actually wash in an hour?

A: It has a very high capacity, capable of washing up to 1000 plates per hour, depending on the cycle selected and  the efficiency of your setup.

Q: Does this dishwasher heat its own water?

A: Yes, it connects to your water supply and  has an internal boiler to heat water to the optimal washing and  rinsing temperatures required for sanitation.

Q: What is a gravity drain?

A: It means the machine uses gravity to empty its water. For it to work, your kitchen's waste pipe must be positioned lower than the machine's water outlet.

Q: Are the chemical pumps included or an extra?

A: They are included. The InstaWash IW100 comes with both the detergent pump and  the rinse aid pump fitted as standard, ready to go.

Q: What size are the wash baskets?

A: It uses industry-standard 500mm x 500mm baskets. It also comes with three types included: one for plates, one for glasses, and  one for cutlery.

Q: Can I wash pots and  pans in it?

A: Absolutely. The robust design and  the longer 180-second cycle make it suitable for washing lighter pots, pans, and  utensils, not just crockery.

Q: How do I Select the different wash cycles?

A: It features a simple, easy-to-use digital control panel on the front where you can Select from the 90, 120, or 180-second wash cycles.

Understanding Gravity Drains: What You Need to Know

Ever wondered what 'gravity drain' means on a spec sheet? Think of it like pulling the plug on a sink at home. The dishwasher relies on the natural force of gravity to pull the used water down and  out through a waste pipe that must be located *below* the machine's outlet. It’s a brilliantly simple and  reliable system with fewer mechanical parts to worry about. The key takeaway? Just make sure your kitchen's drainage point is on the floor or very low down on the wall to ensure the water can flow away freely without needing a pump.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Restaurants & Gastropubs: Keep on top of dinner service rushes with rapid cleaning cycles for plates and  pans.
  • Schools & Large Canteens: Process hundreds of trays and  plates quickly during peak lunch hours, ensuring smooth service.
  • Hotels & Event Venues: Ideal for function suites and  hotel kitchens that handle large-scale banqueting and  events.
  • Motorway Service Stations: Manage the constant, high-volume flow of customers with a machine that never stops.
