CONTENTS

INTRODUCTION

Hatco Flav-R-Savor®Heated Air Curtain Cabinets
are designed to hold prepared foods for prolonged
periods of time while maintaining that “just-made”
quality.

Hatco Heated Air Curtain Cabinets force warm air
through ducts down the cabinet opening, creating
and maintaining ideal holding temperatures without
the use of doors. The heated air is slowly drawn to
the back of the cabinet, warming the food as it flows
to the perforations on the back cabinet wall. The
Heated Air Curtain allows for immediate access to
food products, as well as the best environment for
wrapped, and other sheet pan foods.

Flav-R-Savor® Humidified Heated Air Curtain is
used to control moisturized heat maintaining serving
temperatures and textures longer than conventional
dry holding equipment.
