Holds without cooking
The pre-focused heat keeps food at serving temperature longer without continuing to cook it.
Sag-free aluminum housing
The extruded aluminum housing does not sag, and heavy-duty insulation limits heat loss.

Safe wire guard
A protective wire guard supports the element without blocking the heat.
Tandem elements
At 144", the unit uses end-to-end elements that can be switched separately to heat part of the length.
