A: FRYER TUCK BOIL OUT & HOOD FILTER CLEANER is perfect for food service operators who want to extend the life of their cooking oil while offering high quality fried foods. Fryer Tuck can also be used to clean your exhaust hood filters simply and easily.

Q: Why should I Boil-Out my fryer?
A: All fried foods leave residual by-products in the cooking oil which
form carbon deposits on the fry tank and heating coils which, if not removed, will:
1) REDUCE THE FRYER’S HEATING & COOKING EFFICIENCY
2) EFFECT THE COLOR & FLAVOR OF THE FOOD
3) REDUCE THE COOKING LIFE OF YOUR OIL

Q: I filter my oil often, and change it regularly. Do I still need to Boil-Out my fryer?
A: Yes, definitely. The nature of the stainless steel in your fry tank is porous, and it will collect contamination from burnt on carbon. Even though filtering the fryer’s cooking oil is effective at removing crumbs and other
loose particulates, it will not remove debris that has already hardened and become stuck inside the fryer tank. Unfortunately, as soon as you refill your fryer with new or filtered oil and heat it back up to cooking temperature the same stuck on carbon that couldn’t be filtered out will be released by the heat and CONTAMINATE YOUR FRESH OIL. This is when OIL BREAK DOWN OCCURS. The best way to prolong the life of your cooking oil, is to Boil-Out your fryer.
