A 3 compartment sink is the industry standard for warewashing. With a compartment for washing, rinsing, and sanitizing. This three step process is required by health and sanitation codes, so having a sink that is made for this process is an essential in every kitchen. These 3 compartment sinks are available with a variety of features for different needs and uses, such as drainboard and various bowl sizes.


Frequently Asked Questions About 3 Compartment Sinks

What Is the 3 Step Dishwashing Method?

  1. Wash - scrub and wash dishes with soap and warm water to remove any food particles or grease
  2. Rinse - soak and rinse the soapy water residue from the dishes with clean hot water
  3. Sanitize - finalize the cleaning process by soaking the clean dishes in very hot water or a sanitizer to ensure they are fully cleansed and safe for food use

Can I Perform the 3 Step Method Without a 3 Compartment Sink?

No, each sink compartment must be dedicated to a specific task in a commercial kitchen, and it is not possible to perform the official dishwashing process in any sink that has less than 3 compartments.


Do I Still Need a 3 Compartment Sink if I Have a Dishwasher?

Yes, while dishwashers can be a helpful tool, you still need a sink to wash larger items or those that are not dishwasher safe.
