Where must wash down hoses be stored?

  1. In storage cabinets

  2. On countertops

  3. On hose racks

  4. Near the dishwashing area

The correct answer is: On hose racks

Wash down hoses should be stored on hose racks to ensure they are kept off the ground and away from areas where they could come into contact with contaminants. This method of storage helps to maintain hygiene and prevents the hoses from becoming dirty or damaged when not in use. Hose racks also aid in organizing equipment, making it easily accessible for employees while promoting safe and efficient work practices. In contrast, storing hoses in storage cabinets or on countertops could increase the risk of cross-contamination and make them less accessible for immediate use, while placing them near dishwashing areas does not provide the proper organization and protection from contamination that hose racks do. Proper storage is critical for ensuring that cleaning equipment remains effective and safe for use in a food production environment.
