Eemax® Brings Handwashing Solutions to Quick Service Restaurants
WATERBURY, Conn., May 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Quick service restaurants are preparing to reopen as shelter in place restrictions lift. The CDC recommends handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds when employees arrive at work and at scheduled times throughout their shift to prevent the spread of COVID-19.(1) The FDA advises frequently cleaning floors, counters, and other facility access areas.(2) Having reliable hot water is a necessity at QSRs to aid in comfortable handwashing and support janitorial requirements.
Eemax, a manufacturer of tankless electric water heaters, provides safe, efficient, code-compliant handwashing solutions. Eemax heaters can be installed at the point-of-use for endless, on-demand hot water for handwashing and sanitation, helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and foodborne illnesses. Eemax products are installed in America's most popular quick service restaurant chains.
Eemax heaters are 90% smaller than tank heaters, allowing franchise licensees to use every square inch of space wisely.
