Delfield N8873 Drop-In Electric Hot Food Well – 5 Pan, Wet Operation

Single-Tank Open Well with Remote Thermostat Control

Keep entrées, sides and sauces at perfect serving temperature with the Delfield N8873 Hot Food Well. Designed to drop seamlessly into a 72-3/8" x 25" counter cutout, this 5-pan unit delivers reliable wet-heat performance in a rugged, stainless-steel package that’s built for high-volume commercial kitchens.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Holds five standard 12" x 20" hotel pans in a single 8" deep stainless-steel tank.
  • 1,000 W element under each pan position (5,000–6,000 W total) for fast, even heat.
  • Wet-operation design maintains consistent humidity to reduce food shrinkage.
  • Remote control panel with single mechanical thermostat – mount where it’s most convenient for staff (2 ft pre-wired flexible conduit included).
  • Integral 1" NPT stainless-steel drain speeds end-of-day cleanup.
  • Adapter bars included for secure pan placement straight out of the box.
  • Heavy-gauge, one-piece stainless-steel top with a 2" perimeter flange for a clean, press-fit installation.
  • High-temperature fiberglass insulation on sides and 2" blanket insulation on bottom reduce energy loss and protect surrounding cabinetry.
  • Galvanized exterior housing adds corrosion-resistant durability below the counter line.
