HALO HEAT® –
CLEVERLY DISGUISED
alo Heat is a brand trademark that’s become synonymous with Alto-Shaam’s Cook
H
and Hold and heated holding cabinet technology. Alto-Shaam built it’s brand and
reputation upon it’s Halo-Heat technology, revolutionizing the foodservice industry.
Should it surprise anyone that the same proven heating technology can also be
found in Alto-Shaam’s heated display merchandisers? Through this gentle and
consistent heating technology comes Alto-Shaam’s ability to display food at peak
“just out of the oven” quality levels, while maintaining that perfect balance of
temperature to keep the food moist and fresh while at the same time extending
heated holding/display life. Halo Heat has many benefits that you might not expect
to find in a display case, including:
•
Improved food quality - The gentle Halo Heat heats evenly and precisely, with no hot
or cold spots. This keeps food at optimum temperatures, without drying food out.
No water - For years the industry has been told and convinced that you need steam in
•
display merchandisers to keep food moist, when in fact steam does nothing to maintain
food quality or shelf life. Not to mention the host of other problems and challenges that
water inherently creates with installation, cost of operations, maintenance and sanitation.
•
Environmentally-friendly - Lower utility consumption and the elimination of water
supply and drainage are just a few of the reasons why Alto-Shaam Heated Display Cases
are environmentally friendly. Halo Heat and Alto-Shaam Heated Display Cases are a
great match.
YOU CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW,
THE STEAM IS GONE
If you really think about it, doesn’t it seem kind of silly to try to hold food behind glass with steam? Not only are we trying to
hold food above cooking temperatures, but it’s true that all that steam is actually drying out your food. It’s also true that we “eat
with our eyes” and if your customers can’t see through the fogged glass, how can you expect to generate sales? So much for an
attractive and effective display! Alto-Shaam realizes one of the core basics of displaying hot food—If you’re going to sell it,
you’ve got to be able to see it. Alto-Shaam heated display cases use Halo Heat to keep food warm, not steam. You’ll notice the
difference right away because:
• Food kept warm with Halo Heat is kept at a constant temperature with little
fluctuation. This keeps food from drying out, extends shelf life, and yields
better quality food and sales!
• You know that cloud of steam you see every time someone removes a pan
from a steam table? It’s usually one of the reasons your employees don’t
like changing steam table pans. With Halo Heat, that blast of steam will be
nothing more than a blast from the past.
• When you eliminate the steam, you eliminate the problems! No steam
means reduced construction and installation costs; no water supply or
drainage cost; elimination of water quality related service, maintenance and
sanitation; and best of all, a safer and better way to maintain food quality
and presentation to grow your sales.

EFFICIENCY IS ON DISPLAY
Anyone who is concerned with environmental responsibility and reducing costs can appreciate efficiency. With
rising costs and falling profit margins, efficiency is a welcome addition to any food service operation.
Alto-Shaam’s heated display merchandisers set the
industry benchmark for efficiency.
• Our exclusive Halo Heat technology uses significantly
less electricity than calrod-based warmers.
• The water-free heating technology means you won’t have
to pay for water or drainage and you won’t need caustic
chemicals to de-scale the equipment. Halo Heat is a
clean, straightforward way to keep food warm.
• With Halo Heat’s precise temperature settings, your
food will remain at optimum temperature, without

continuing to cook or drying it out. More of your food
is sold, and less ends up as waste.
GIVE THE FRONT GLASS A LIFT
The front glass on any enclosed display case is designed to be a “window
on the world” of food. A dirty display not only creates a poor consumer
perception, but can also negatively impact sales.
The “lift up” tempered, front glass can be lifted to a 90˚ angle for easy
cleaning and safe and efficient loading or unloading of the merchandiser. It
may seem like a trivial feature, but try it once and you’ll ask yourself, “Why
don’t all enclosed display cases do this?”
CHOOSING THE RIGHT
DISPLAY FOR YOUR APPLICATION
How much room do you have? What variety of menu
do you want to display? These may be two of the
most critical questions you need to ask yourself
when deciding what size and type of heated
display merchandiser you need.
