Air curtains may be an often overlooked item in the restaurant industry. However, they provide a clean, open, and airy environment your customers will appreciate. Below, we will explore Berner Air Curtains and why you should invest (or upgrade!) your restaurant’s air curtains today!
Benefits
Air curtains are a restaurant must-have for a number of reasons. They increase customer satisfaction and retention, they reduce energy costs, they reduce employee turnover, and they maintain sanitation standards. Additionally, when installed above entryways, they create an invisible barrier that prevents temperature exchange, blocks dust, and minimizes pest infiltration. By maintaining consistent indoor temperatures, these air curtains optimize customer comfort, enhance food preservation, and contribute to energy savings by reducing the workload on heating and cooling systems. Customers who are able to sit comfortably by the door, whether enjoying a view or waiting for a table, will have a much more enjoyable experience. Simultaneously, your restaurant will benefit from the reduced energy costs provided by the protection of the air curtains. They allow for a variety of equipment, including HVAC and cooler compressors, to run for a significantly less amount of time. Your employees will come to work each day knowing that they’re working in a comfortable environment. Finally, sanitation standards are maintained with the protection that air curtains provide.
Restaurant Types and Areas of Use
From quick serve restaurants to fine dining, bars and breweries, the use of restaurant air curtains is recommended everywhere. They have been successfully installed in kitchen or service entries, where they provide chemical-free insect control. They are used for walk-in coolers to maintain refrigeration temperatures and save on energy and the risk of spoiling food. The air curtains help to maintain a comfortable entry for customers. For your drive-thru workers, they keep weather, exhaust fumes, and bugs out, while allowing your employees a much more comfortable working environment. They also have similar functions for concession window workers. For indoor/outdoor bars and patio/garden entries, they keep the temperature cool and bugs outside where they belong. Your shipping and receiving department may often feel overlooked, but equipping them with air curtains will keep them cool and protected from insects and trash that could blow in.
