Carter-Hoffmann CW1 Bulk Nacho Chip Warmer
20 gal | Forced-Air Heating | First-In/First-Out Gravity FeedKeep your high-volume concession, stadium or cinema line moving with hot, crispy chips ready every time. The CW1’s top-mounted convection heater bathes product in a gentle blanket of warm air from the bottom up, while the patented gravity-fed design ensures the oldest chips are served first for unbeatable freshness.
Why the CW1 Stands Out
- Forced-air heat duct baffling delivers even temperatures to every corner of the cabinet.
- Incoloy-sheathed heating element and heavy-duty fan motor for rapid heat-up & recovery.
- First-in/first-out gravity feed promotes perfect product rotation and less waste.
- Top loading ramp door flips out for easy bulk fills—no lifting trays overhead.
- Bottom service door hinges down to form a staging shelf for baskets during serving.
- Integrated crumb drawer slides out without tools to keep the cabinet spotless.
- All-stainless steel 20-gauge interior & exterior for a lifetime of effortless sanitation.
- Large 20-gallon capacity (≈2.75 cu ft) handles rushes without constant refills.
- RapidShip model—in-stock and ready to leave the warehouse fast.
