Heavy Gauge Stainless Steel Construction

Features a heavy gauge 300 series stainless steel top and a galvanized steel body with 2 inches of fiberglass insulation for durability and heat retention.

Heavy Gauge Stainless Steel Construction

One-Piece Deep-Drawn Wells

Each heat compartment is constructed from one-piece deep-drawn 304 series 18-8 stainless steel with coved corners for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Individual Thermostatic Controls

Each well has its own thermostatic control with a positive 'Off' position, allowing for independent temperature management of different food items. An amber light indicates when power is on.

Wet or Dry Operation

Designed to operate efficiently with or without water, providing flexibility for different food holding applications. Wet operation with hot water improves heat distribution and prevents food from drying out.

Integrated Drain System

Units with drains are connected by 0.75-inch diameter copper pipe fittings to a single ball valve, which can be mounted to the operator's left or right for convenient water drainage.

Recessed Control Panel

Control knobs are recessed into a one-piece, front-mounted control panel, protecting them from accidental adjustments and spills.

Field-Convertible to Three-Phase

All multi-well units are shipped wired for single-phase operation but can be easily converted to three-phase operation in the field by an electrician.

Tubular Heating Elements

Tubular heating elements are securely clamped to the underside of the wells, allowing for easy service access through the bottom of the unit.
