4 Tips to Keep Your Restaurant Microwave in Good Condition

Many people use their microwaves every day without considering the maintenance. How you treat and operate your commercial microwaves can significantly impact how long they last.


The good news is that changing only a few bad habits can have a significant impact. Microwaves usually last between 5 and 10 years on average, and if you start performing the following things, you can anticipate a comparable — or even more significant — longevity from yours.


In this blog, we will discuss easy tips for maintaining your restaurant microwaves. 

  1. Maintain cleanliness

Cleaning your commercial microwave is one of the simplest ways to increase its longevity. Many individuals are unaware that food and liquid splatters can absorb energy, resulting in burn marks and potentially harming microwave parts. With warm, soapy water or a specialist microwave oven cleaner, most foods and beverages can be eliminated.


Try heating a cup of water in the microwave for 60 to 90 seconds to help with tough stains; the steam from the water should help release the dirt.

  1. Choose dishware carefully

You should only use microwave-safe dishware since non-microwave-safe materials might result in flames or explosions, which is bad for your safety and the life of your microwave. The following things should never be microwaved:


  • Metalized foil

  • Metal

  • Dishware with silver or gold accents


There are some exceptions to the rule, but most ceramic, glass, and plastic goods are safe to microwave. Look for the microwave-safe label on a piece of dishware rather than assuming. 


If a dish or container doesn't have a label, you can do a quick test to see if it's microwave-safe. Cook for one minute in the microwave in a microwave-safe cup or bowl filled with water. It is advised only to microwave a container or dish if it is hot since it has absorbed too much energy.

  1. Avoid door damage.

One of the microwave's most misused elements is the door. Most individuals have at some point slammed a microwave door, used an elbow to push it shut because they didn't have any other hands, or pulled the door open without first turning the microwave off.


These all have the potential to gradually harm your unit. Few people realize how complicated restaurant microwave latches are; some latches have up to three switching mechanisms that must close in the proper sequence. Carelessly closing the door could harm these switches. While the microwave operates, opening the lid could cause a safety fuse to blow. 

  1. Avoid running on empty.

Running a restaurant's microwave while it is empty can seriously harm it. The energy that a microwave generates when it is open must be absorbed by the microwave's parts, such as the glass or the magnetron that produces the radiation. These components can be expensive to fix or replace because they were not intended to endure this level of exposure.
