Rio Ferdinand plays it safe in the kitchen..

(April 09, 2013)

Rosso’s, the prestigious Manchester restaurant owned by Manchester United player Rio Ferdinand, has installed a new gas safety system in its kitchen supplied by ‘top of the league’ gas safety specialist S&S Northern and installed by Ventilation Specialists Combi-Vent Engineering. The restaurant’s customers include a long list of premier league footballers and A list celebrities.

The new gas interlock system ensures that staff working in Rosso’s kitchen are not exposed to high levels of carbon dioxide from gas cookers without a functioning ventilation system. The Merlin CT1250 was manufactured and supplied by Chorley-based S&S Northern and installed by Combi-Vent of Denton.

Adam Brewster of Combi-Vent says, “Rosso’s contacted us to fit a new gas interlock system when they discovered the one that had been fitted did not work properly and was incorrectly wired. Obviously a top restaurant like Rosso’s was keen to ensure safe working conditions for staff so we chose S&S Northern’s Merlin CT1250 gas interlock system for the project. All S&S Northern products are very reliable and easy to operate so we always prefer to use S&S products above any others.”

Head Chef at Rosso’s Stephen Hildebrandt says, “We are delighted with the quality and reliability of S&S Northern’s gas interlock system. It was installed with ease and we are now confident that the kitchen is meeting the British Standard recommendations and our staff are completely protected.”

Steve McMahon, Managing Director of S&S Northern says, “We are delighted that both Rosso’s and Combi-Vent chose to use our products".
