Taking care of an institutional improved cook stove (IICS) is crucial, because it will determine its lifetime, like with everything else. Schools might see an increase in their population, and unfortunately their financial situation is usually not good to buy new saucepans. So cooks end up overfilling the saucepans, and whether it is posho or beans they are cooking, water has salt, and when it starts boiling, food spills everywhere, corroding the top ring.
We have used the past 3 weeks to collect those top rings that needed the free repairs we provide for a 10-year period. Here below are some pictures of the cutting and welding events, with top rings that needed attention, of different IICS saucepan capacities.
