hotLOGIX HL2-8 Humidified Holding / Proofing Cabinet
½-Height • Carter-Hoffmann (Middleby)Designed for kitchens that refuse to compromise on quality or speed, the non-insulated hotLOGIX HL2-8 keeps cooked foods hot, fresh and service-ready for hours while doubling as a dependable dough proofer. Its compact ½-height footprint tucks under counters or lines, yet still holds up to 16 steam-table pans. Set it, forget it and serve every plate at its “just-finished” best.
Why you’ll love it
- Active heat + humidity control – bottom-mounted blower heater with manual-fill reservoir maintains ideal moisture for pastas, veggies, proteins and proofing dough.

- Recessed mechanical controls with digital thermometer put precise settings at your fingertips and protect dials from bumps.
- Durable single-wall aluminum (.063 " exterior) keeps the cabinet light and maneuverable without sacrificing strength.
- Tempered-glass door in an extruded aluminum frame lets staff check inventory at a glance – no heat loss from “peek” opens.
