Hatco CHW-43-QS Quick-Ship Cook & Hold Countertop Heated Well, 4/3-Size, Wet/Dry, 1800W, 120V
A 4/3-size countertop well that rethermalizes food in water and then holds it hot for service.
The Hatco CHW-43 is the high-watt, cook and hold version of Hatco's countertop heated well. Its 1800 watt metal sheathed element rethermalizes food in wet operation, or holds it hot wet or dry. The well takes one full-size pan plus one third-size pan with an accessory pan support bar, or four third-size pans with accessory pan support bars. It plugs into a standard 120V outlet with a 6 ft. cord and NEMA 5-15P plug, so it works on a buffet line, catering table or back counter without a hookup. This is the Quick-Ship stock version: Hatco's Quick-Ship list shows item CHW.00002, with (4) Third-Size Pans and (4) 1" Legs. The Canadian version uses a NEMA 5-20P plug.
Plan the counter for the 30.91" depth plus the cord at the back left corner.
The 1800 W high-watt element rethermalizes food in wet operation and then holds it. Hatco says not to rethermalize food in the same unit while it is holding hot food.
It can run dry, but Hatco says it performs best with water. Fill with hot tap water to the MAX line and refill at the MIN line; a Dry indicator light comes on when the well runs dry.
A lighted On/Off rocker switch and an adjustable temperature dial marked 1 to 7. Preheat with an empty pan for about 30 minutes.
The well is .8 mm thick 304 stainless steel inside a stainless steel housing with an aluminized steel bottom.
A pan edge offset helps keep condensation from dripping onto the countertop.
Takes 1 full-size + 1 third-size pan or 4 third-size pans. Adapters HW-2-11QT (two 11-quart inserts) and HW-4-4QT (four 4-quart inserts) convert it for round inserts.
Yes. The CHW series is designed to rethermalize food as well as hold it. Always use wet operation and a food pan when rethermalizing.
No, it may be used dry, but Hatco says best performance is with water. Let the unit cool to room temperature before you switch between wet and dry operation.
A grounded 120V outlet for its NEMA 5-15P plug. It draws 15.0 amps at 1800 watts, single phase. Hatco lists a NEMA 5-20P version for Canada.
It holds one full-size pan plus one third-size pan with an accessory pan support bar, or four third-size pans with accessory pan support bars. Hatco sells 12" (HW12BAR) and 20" (HW20BAR) pan support bars and adapters HW-2-11QT (two 11-quart inserts) and HW-4-4QT (four 4-quart inserts).
Hatco's Quick-Ship list describes item CHW.00002 as CHW-43 with (4) Third-Size Pans and (4) 1" Legs, NEMA 5-15P.
Unplug and cool it, empty the water, and wipe it with mild detergent daily. To delime, fill with 50% water and 50% white vinegar, run it on high for 30 minutes, then let it soak at least an hour.
