cook and hold ovens

Alto-Shaam cook and hold ovens are built to unwavering standards utilizing an electric thermal cable wrapped around the entire cooking and holding chamber. This element creates a gentle blanket or halo of radiant heat surrounding food with a uniform temperature and no air movement inside the oven cavity. This patented method of low temperature cooking, called Halo Heat preserves the natural product moisture. This eliminates the use of drying fans inside the oven for heat distribution and humidity pans to compensate for the drying effects of fans. Alto-Shaam low temperature cook and hold ovens require no outside venting or oven hoods, a major cost factor in any kitchen. With only one-third to one-half the energy consumption of a standard convection or deck oven, labor-saving set-and-forget controls, you'll see a return on your investment within a very short time. To prove our superior quality is indeed a value, we back our ovens with an unprecedented 5-year warranty on all cook and hold heating elements.
