Project Overview
The back kitchens of Sichuan Sichuan cuisine and hot pot restaurants suffer from persistent high temperature and heavy lampblack. In summer, the temperature near stoves can exceed 45°C. Ordinary household air conditioners are easily clogged by grease and shut down under high heat, featuring poor cooling effect and high maintenance costs. A 60-square-meter Sichuan stir-fry restaurant in Chengdu has 4 high-heat cooking stoves with 5 chefs working in sweltering conditions all year round. Its previously installed ordinary air conditioner lost cooling capacity after only two months, resulting in high staff turnover. The restaurant adopted a customized cooling solution with Lanchang 3HP ducted commercial kitchen air conditioner, which thoroughly solved the high-temperature trouble in the kitchen.
Lanchang’s professional engineers conducted on-site surveys. Considering the heavy lampblack and strong negative pressure from exhaust systems in Sichuan kitchens, they selected the 3HP high static pressure model with directional air ducts to deliver cool air to the 1.5-meter working zone of chefs. Equipped with a high-temperature resistant dedicated compressor, the unit runs stably under extreme ambient temperature up to 60°C. Its 6-stage oil-proof filtration system and nano ceramic oil-repellent evaporator cut lampblack adhesion by 70%, and the automatic high-temperature oil removal function greatly reduces disassembly cleaning frequency. The 304 stainless steel casing resists corrosion and moisture, fitting the greasy, steamy kitchen environment perfectly.
Actual measurement after installation and commissioning shows the perceived temperature at cooking stations dropped steadily from 46°C to 25°C. Cool air penetrates exhaust negative pressure zones without energy waste. Intelligent variable frequency temperature control adjusts power as needed, cutting monthly power consumption by 20% compared with old equipment. The greatly improved working environment boosts chefs’ comfort, lifting order output efficiency by 22% and drastically reducing staff turnover rate.
Supported by Lanchang’s local service outlets across Sichuan, the unit enjoys a 3-year whole-machine warranty and a 5-year warranty for core components, with 24-hour on-site after-sales service to avoid business suspension. This 3HP model fits medium and small Sichuan restaurants, rice noodle shops and barbecue stalls with 4–6 stoves, and has been widely installed in catering stores all over Sichuan, becoming a benchmark renovation solution for high-temperature back kitchens. Targeted at three major pain points of Sichuan-Chongqing catering kitchens—overheating, heavy lampblack and high energy consumption, Lanchang professional commercial kitchen air conditioners balance user experience and long-term operating costs, winning wide recognition from local catering operators.
