Hatco CWBP-S2 R-290 Refrigerated Slim Drop-In Cold Well, 2 Full-Size Pans, Top Mount, 120V
Description
A slim top-mount cold well that holds 2 full-size pans turned lengthwise, so guests and staff reach everything even behind a sneeze guard.
The Hatco CWBP-S2 is a self-contained R-290 refrigerated slim drop-in well. Full-size 12" x 20" pans sit lengthwise, which keeps the well only 18.99" deep. Angled inside walls with copper coils let cold air blanket pre-chilled food without drying it out. It runs on 120V and plugs into a standard NEMA 5-15 outlet.

Measure the counter: the cutout sizes above are what the well drops into, and the counter must be level for draining.
R-290 refrigeration
A 1/5 HP compressor uses R-290 propane refrigerant, 4.7 oz. factory fill. Hatco states R-290 absorbs heat 90% better than other refrigerants for faster recovery.
Lengthwise pans
Pans sit with the long side facing the guest, so the well is only 18.99" deep and every pan is within reach, even with a sneeze guard.
Angled cold wall
The top-angled inside wall gives more coil surface and lets cold air blanket the pans. NSF 7 component cold wall construction keeps food cold without drying it out.
Digital control
An electronic controller with a power switch is factory set to 39°F. Auto-defrost can be programmed on site, from off to a set number of hours between cycles.
Flexible mounting
The control panel mounts on either side of the condensing unit or up to 4 ft. away. Condensing unit sits under the left side as standard; center-aligned is a no-charge factory option.
Insulated, easy to clean
Sides and bottom are insulated with environmentally friendly insulation. A 1" brass drain lets you rinse the well at closing.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the crate for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Approximate shipping weight is 170 lb. The well arrives in a shipping frame; keep it upright and in the frame until the counter cutout is ready.
- Hatco ships the installation kit (intake bracket, duct clamp, flexible duct, 90° elbow and duct collar) separately.
- If it arrives in cold weather, let it sit at room temperature for 10 hours before switching it on.
- Installation must be done by qualified installers to local electrical and plumbing codes. The condensing unit must be isolated from other electrical devices, and R-290 service needs a technician trained on flammable refrigerant.
- Seal the bezel to the counter with NSF-approved silicone, or order the factory-installed gasket. Run it empty with pans for about 60 minutes before loading pre-chilled food.
Questions buyers ask
What size counter cutout does it need?
Cut 46.25" to 47.09" wide and 17.06" to 17.94" deep. The counter must be level so the well drains, and strong enough for the unit and its contents.
What outlet does it need?
A grounded 120V, 60 Hz outlet for the NEMA 5-15P plug. It draws 5.2 amps and 345 watts. Hatco asks for the receptacle within 6 ft. of the control panel and at least 12" above the cabinet floor.
Can I install it in a closed cabinet?
Yes, with ventilation. Hatco calls for 12" x 12" louvered or grill openings in front of and behind the condensing coils, plus intake ducting; installing without it voids the warranty. Cabinet air should stay between 65°F and 86°F.
Can it cool food down?
No. It holds food that is already chilled to a safe temperature. Hatco sets it to 39°F at the factory and you can adjust the setpoint.
Are pans included?
No. It ships with pan support bars for full-size pans. Pans, 12" support bars, false bottoms and trivets are accessories.
What options are there?
At order time only: a 5° slant kit, a factory-installed gasket, a center-aligned condenser, and an additional 4-year parts-only warranty on the compressor.
What warranty does it have?
Hatco's manual refers to a standard one year warranty, with 24/7 parts and service help in the US and Canada. An additional 4-year parts-only compressor warranty can be bought with the unit.
