Hot Gas Defrosting and Electric Heating Defrosting
In commercial refrigerators used in kitchens, both hot gas defrosting and electric heating defrosting have their own advantages and disadvantages. From the perspective of energy consumption, hot gas defrosting is energy-efficient. It ingeniously utilizes the hot gas generated by the refrigeration system itself and does not require additional electricity for defrosting. For kitchens in long-term operation, this can significantly reduce costs. On the contrary, electric heating defrosting has a high energy consumption. It completely relies on the operation of electric heating elements. Over time, it will greatly increase electricity expenses. In terms of the defrosting effect, hot gas defrosting is fast, generally taking less than 10 minutes to complete. It heats from the inside of the evaporator, which can not only
