A considered approach

Back-of-house hotel lighting

Separate food preparation, inspection, storage and circulation in the schedule. Check temperature, moisture and cleaning conditions with the operator. Coordinate task-lighting calculations with the electrical designer and avoid creating shadows over worktops. Standardising suitable components can simplify spares across multiple service areas.
