Description

Hydro-Heater™ FR2-3B Food Rethermalizer / Bain-Marie Heater – 3 kW

Hatco • Made in USA • cULus & UL EPH Classified

Keep soups, sauces and pre-cooked entrées hot, safe and ready to serve with the Hatco Hydro-Heater™. This compact 3 kW unit mounts directly to the bottom of your bain-marie or hot-well and delivers temperature-controlled water faster and more evenly than coil elements or immersion heaters.

Why you’ll love it

  • Free-flow water path provides rapid heat-up and consistent temperatures across the well.
  • Spiral heating element wraps outside the stainless tube—no direct element contact with water, less scale build-up.
  • Digital controller lets you dial in 140 °F–190 °F (60 °C–88 °C) with ±1 °F accuracy.
  • Automatic low-water cut-off and electronic temp monitor protect the heater and your product.
  • Rugged stainless front panel with antimicrobial, powder-coated body for superior durability.
  • Tool-free clean-out caps plus front drain valve make daily maintenance quick and easy.
  • Balanced 3-phase design spreads the load evenly for greater efficiency and longer element life.
  • Built and supported in Wisconsin, backed by Hatco’s 24/7 parts & service network (U.S./Canada).

Perfect for

  • Built-in bain-maries & steam tables up to 6 ft (1.8 m)
  • High-volume cafeterias and school kitchens
  • Convenience stores & delis
  • Catering, commissary & ghost kitchens
