FAQs
- What is the optimal temperature range for holding different types of food? The ideal temperature depends on the food type, but generally, aim for 140-160°F (60-71°C) for most cooked foods to prevent bacterial growth.
- How does the water pan system work? The integral water pan adds humidity to the cabinet, preventing food from drying out and maintaining its quality. Simply fill the pan with water as needed.
- What is the difference between an insulated and non-insulated holding cabinet? Insulated cabinets are better suited for keeping food hot when the doors will be opened and closed much more frequently, since they are better equipped at retaining the heat.
- What if I don’t have the right outlets for this model’s standard 5-20P plug? The manufacturer offers a low wattage option, which comes with a 5-15P plug. Contact us prior to placing your order.
