Optimised for high ends Bars and Restaurants

In a bustling food service venue, bar counter space is strictly limited, and rapid turnaround of clean glassware keeps profits flowing. The Washtech GM-R addresses this industry hurdle by packing full-scale performance features into a lowered, space-conscious configuration. Its highly adaptable interior cabinet allows bartenders to maintain an efficient workflow right at the service point.

This compact glasswasher offers immediate operational advantages across a wide range of hospitality applications:

• Micro-Bars and Speakeasies: Slides effortlessly under low-profile front bars to maintain a steady flow of clean cocktail glasses without breaking the venue’s design aesthetic.
• Espresso Bars and Kiosks: Manages a constant influx of ceramic coffee cups, saucers, and specialty latte glasses in confined workspaces.
• Wineries and Cellar Doors: Safeguards delicate wine tasting stems while removing stubborn lipstick marks and organic residues.
• Boutique Hotels and Lounges: Serves as a localized secondary glass cleaning station to support busy floor staff during evening rush hours.

4. Wipe down Inner Surfaces: Wipe clean the interior door lining and rubber safety gasket with a non-abrasive damp cloth to prevent mildew.

Why Choose the Washtech GM-R For Your Bar or Restaurant?

Standard commercial under bench washers often struggle to slide under modern, lowered Australian bar configurations, forcing venues to install smaller domestic appliances that cannot heat water to regulatory sanitising temperatures. The Washtech GM-R solves this layout crisis completely. Measuring just 780mm in height, it fits into tight spaces where larger 840mm units cannot go, yet it still delivers true commercial-grade heating, integrated dual chemical pumps, and lightning-fast wash cycles. It provides a professional-tier ware washing workflow for compact venues that refuse to settle for compromised performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Will this glasswasher fit under a low-profile bar setup?
A: Yes. The GM-R features an overall external height of just 780mm. This makes it significantly shorter than standard 840mm commercial undercounter units, letting it slip under lowered benches and compact service areas easily.

Q: What does the soft-start pump motor do for my glassware?
A: The 0.3HP wash pump avoids throwing full water pressure at your glassware instantly. By stepping up the spray velocity gently over the first few seconds of the wash cycle, it prevents delicate cocktail saucers and highball glasses from tipping over and shattering.

Q: Does this compact model include automated chemical dispensing?
A: Yes. The Washtech GM-R features integrated dual internal chemical pumps. The machine draws liquid detergent and rinse aid straight from your bulk bottles and automatically doses the wash tank, saving bar staff from handling harsh chemicals manually.

Q: Can I connect this machine to a cold-water line?
A: The GM-R requires a hot water connection to ensure it meets rapid sanitising turnarounds. If your site only has a cold supply, you can utilize the machine’s up rateable power capabilities to help boost heating recovery times.

Q: What specific baskets are shipped out with this glasswasher?
A: Every factory-sealed Washtech GM-R unit comes standard with a full quick-connection plumbing installation kit, a cutlery container, 1x 450mm dish rack, and 1x 450mm cup rack.
