Description

Carter-Hoffmann CW1 Bulk Nacho Chip Warmer

20 gal | Forced-Air Heating | First-In/First-Out Gravity Feed

Keep 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.
