The sophisticated FiltaCool filter system, designed especially for commercial refrigeration units, lowers the concentration of harmful gases, regulates humidity and reduces unpleasant odors in walk-in coolers and other cold storage devices.  FiltaCool will also keep your units running longer and more efficiently.  Let’s take a closer look at just how FiltaCool can save money for your business.
Food Savings
Restaurants and other commercial kitchens spend an average of 30 percent of their annual revenue on food costs.  FiltaCool provides a way to save big on your food costs.  FiltaCool filters extend the life of perishable food items, thereby helping you control food costs.

Let’s say that your restaurant brings in $1,000,000 annually.  That means that your food costs will be around $300,000.  Of that $300k, nearly 35% ($105k) will be spent of fresh produce, a good deal of which will end up in the dumpster after spoiling.  If FiltaCool filters saved you just 2% on the cost of produce, then you would be saving $175 each month ($2,100 annually) on just produce.  In reality, you would most likely see even greater savings.

Energy Savings
The potential to save you money doesn’t stop there.  Independent tests show that FiltaCool helps coolers run more efficiently and lowers cooler temperatures by 2-5 degrees.  FiltaCool filters have been demonstrated to reduce the energy use of coolers by as much as 10 percent.

The average walk-in cooler uses 20,000 kWh of energy per year.  At the national average of $0.11/kWh, the cost of running a cooler for one year comes out to around $2,244.  Using FiltaCool can reduce that figure, saving around $224 per cooler per year.  Your business will be able to proudly boast of your “greener” way of doing business while saving money.

Equipment Savings

Using less energy can lead to even greater savings as well.  FiltaCool users also report reduced spending on costly repairs and maintenance.  Because your equipment will have to work less to maintain a stable temperature in your coolers, its life can be extended by as much as 33 to 44 percent.

The cost of a 1.5 HP compressor and a 8200 BTU evaporator with 2 fans averages at around $3,000 with a 5 year life expectancy.  Filta can extend this systems use by 40%, adding on another 2 years of life and saving the owner $172 in equipment costs each year.  Filta can help you realize the full potential of your cooling systems and see them running longer.

From the minute FiltaCool filters are installed in your units you will start saving money.  Your produce will last longer, generating less waste and bigger profits.  Your equipment will run more efficiently and last longer.  FiltaCool is yet another way that Filta helps improve the way you do business in a “greener” and more cost-effective way.
