Questions buyers ask
What pans fit in the drawers?
The drawers hold 4 standard 12" x 20" x 4" pans in total: each 31" drawer holds two pans side-by-side. Pans are not included.
What outlet does it need?
It runs on 120V single phase, 50 or 60 Hz, through a 6' cord with a grounded plug. The 8 amp rating is for the compressor only; Southbend says not to use it for breaker sizing, so have your electrician size the circuit.
Can I put a griddle or charbroiler on top?
Yes, this base is built to support Southbend modular sectional range tops, mounted with an insulated base adapter. Southbend does not publish a weight rating for the top, so call us to confirm your exact top before ordering.
How cold does it keep food?
Southbend's manual gives a design range of 37 to 40°F for refrigerated storage, set with the adjustable digital thermostat. Keep the room between 55°F and 90°F.
Where does the condensate go?
Condensate leaves through a 1/2" inside-diameter vinyl tube behind the compressor area. A condensate evaporator pan is standard only on 72" and wider models, so plan for the drain tube at this 60" size.
Will it fit through my door?
It is 60" wide, 32.5" deep and 26" high and weighs 550 lbs shipped. Measure every doorway and turn on the delivery path before ordering.
Can it go next to my fryer or range?
Southbend allows it in a sectional battery only if the base sections next to it are insulated or do not produce heat. Leave at least 2" at the rear.
What does the warranty cover?
Southbend covers parts and labor for 1 year from purchase, serviced by a Southbend Authorized Service Agency. Door seals and rubber seals are limited to 90 days, and damage from improper installation or misuse is not covered.
