In December 2025, Foshan Yilike Canteen underwent a significant kitchen environment upgrade — upon relocating to their new factory, the staff cafeteria had FiboSmart's 3HP commercial kitchen air conditioning installed right away, bringing a cool and comfortable working and dining environment to the 60-person facility from the very first day.
Project Background
Located in Foshan, Yilike Canteen is an internal staff cafeteria serving approximately 60 employees daily. Due to the lack of kitchen air conditioning in the previous facility, summer kitchen temperatures often soared above 40°C, leaving chefs drenched in sweat and severely affecting work efficiency and health.
At the end of 2025, when Yilike Canteen relocated to its new factory and new cafeteria, the management team decided to install professional kitchen cooling equipment immediately — ensuring chefs could enjoy a comfortable, cool working environment from day one in the new kitchen.
Solution
After on-site survey and needs analysis, the FiboSmart team recommended and installed a 3HP commercial kitchen air conditioning unit specifically designed for Yilike's needs. This model is purpose-built for high-temperature, high-grease kitchen environments and features:
- Powerful Cooling: Rapidly lowers kitchen temperature, maintaining comfort even during intense stir-fry cooking
- Grease-Resistant Design: Special coatings and filtration systems designed for high-grease kitchen environments
- Smart Temperature Control: Automatically adjusts operation for energy efficiency
- Quiet Operation: Does not disturb the dining area
Installation Process
The installation was carried out in sync with the new cafeteria's renovation. The indoor unit was installed above the kitchen, the outdoor unit was placed on the building's exterior wall, and the piping was neatly laid out. The entire installation was completed and commissioned in one go, ready for the new cafeteria's opening day.
Results
From the moment the air conditioning was put into operation, the results were immediate:
- Significant Temperature Drop: Kitchen temperature reduced from over 40°C to around 26°C — a drop of more than 14°C
- Positive Chef Feedback: The working environment improved dramatically; chefs are no longer drenched in sweat and efficiency has increased
- Improved Dining Experience: Cool air from the kitchen partially spreads to the dining area, enhancing the overall employee dining experience
Customer Testimonial
The Yilike Canteen manager stated: "Our previous cafeteria had no air conditioning, and the chefs suffered through every summer. When we moved to the new factory and new cafeteria, the very first thing we did was install FiboSmart kitchen air conditioning. The chefs are much more comfortable now and no longer complain about the heat. This was absolutely the right decision — the sooner you install it, the sooner you benefit!"
