Why Colorado Restaurants Need Auto-Dispensing Systems

Walk into any restaurant kitchen in Colorado or Wyoming, and you'll find a three-compartment sink. It's where pots, pans, and utensils get cleaned between the rush.
But take a closer look at what's actually happening in that dish area, and you might spot some costly problems.
Common Dish Area Issues That Cost You Money
Restaurant owners and managers often overlook the dish pit until something goes wrong. By then, you've already wasted money, time, and potentially risked a failed health inspection.
Free Pouring Detergent
When kitchen staff squeeze dish soap directly into the sink, they're guessing at the right amount. Too little means dishes don't get clean. Too much means you're literally pouring money down the drain. Either way, you're not getting consistent results.
Mixing Bleach Manually
Some restaurants still have staff mixing bleach and water for sanitizer. This creates two problems: incorrect dilution ratios that fail health inspections, and chemical exposure risks for your team. Neither helps your bottom line or your operation.
Poor Product Accessibility
Soap and sanitizer bottles tucked under the sink slow down your dishwashing process. Staff waste time bending down, digging around, and dealing with containers that are hard to reach during busy shifts. These small delays add up across hundreds of dish loads.
Empty Dispensers and Old Equipment
Running out of soap mid-shift disrupts kitchen flow. Old, broken dispensers that don't work properly create the same problem. Both issues force staff to work around the system rather than with it.
The Auto-Dispensing Solution for Three-Compartment Sinks
Performance Foodservice Denver offers a straightforward alternative: an auto-dispensing system designed specifically for three-compartment sinks. This system eliminates guesswork and delivers precise amounts of detergent and sanitizer every time.
The system connects directly to your three-compartment sink and automatically dispenses the correct dilution of cleaning and sanitizing chemicals. No measuring, no guessing, no waste.
How Auto-Dispensing Saves Time and Money
Consistent Dilution Every Time
The system dispenses exact amounts of Trio Premium Dish Detergent and Super San Food Service Sanitizer based on water flow. Your staff gets the right concentration automatically, which means cleaner dishes and proper sanitization without thinking about it.
Reduced Chemical Costs
When you eliminate free pouring and manual mixing, you stop over-using chemicals. The system uses only what's needed for effective cleaning and sanitizing. Over weeks and months, this controlled usage significantly reduces chemical costs.
Faster Dish Operations
Auto-dispensing removes steps from your dishwashing process. No bottles to grab, no measurements to estimate, no time spent mixing solutions. Kitchen staff can focus on washing dishes rather than preparing wash water.
Health Inspection Confidence
Proper sanitizer concentration is non-negotiable during health inspections. The auto-dispensing system delivers consistent, correct dilution ratios. Plus, every case of Super San Food Service Sanitizer includes a free roll of test strips, making it simple to verify proper concentration.

Products That Power the System
Performance Foodservice Denver's three-compartment sink system uses two specialized products:
Trio Premium Dish Detergent (#DV984): This concentrated detergent comes in 2x1 cases and is formulated specifically for manual warewashing. It cuts through grease and food residue effectively when dispensed at the correct dilution.
Super San Food Service Sanitizer (#DW004): Available in 2x1 cases, this sanitizer provides proper bacterial reduction when auto-dispensed. The included test strips give you peace of mind that sanitizer concentration meets health code requirements.
Both products work seamlessly with the auto-dispensing equipment to create a complete warewashing solution.
No-Charge Installation and Service
The best part of switching to an auto-dispensing system? Performance Foodservice Denver handles installation and service at no charge to you. Your Beverage and Chemical specialist will assess your dish area, install the dispensing equipment, and ensure your team knows how to use the system.
Ongoing service is included as well. If you ever have issues with the dispensers or need adjustments, support is part of your partnership with Performance Foodservice Denver.
Better for Your Operation, Better for Your Team
Restaurant kitchens in Colorado and Wyoming deal with enough complexity. Your dish area shouldn't add to the stress. An auto-dispensing system simplifies one of the most fundamental kitchen processes while protecting your food safety standards.
Whether you run a busy Bar & Grill in Denver, an Italian restaurant in Fort Collins, a Mexican restaurant in Cheyenne, or a pizza shop anywhere in between, proper warewashing affects your operation every single day.
Making the Switch
If your restaurant still relies on free-pour detergent and manually mixed sanitizer, you're working harder and spending more than necessary. An auto-dispensing three-compartment sink system from Performance Foodservice Denver solves these problems.
Contact your Performance Foodservice Denver representative to schedule a dish area assessment. They'll evaluate your current setup, recommend the appropriate dispensing system, and coordinate installation at your convenience.
Your kitchen staff deserves equipment that makes their jobs easier. Your operation deserves a warewashing system that saves money and supports food safety compliance. The auto-dispensing solution delivers both.
