Description
A 30" high watt ceramic infrared warmer that keeps plated food hot over a 12" to 16" deep pass-through or holding shelf.
The Hatco UGAH-30 is an Ultra-Glo high watt ceramic infrared strip heater. It is 30" wide and 6" deep, with a pre-focused heat pattern that puts more heat at the edges, where heat loss is greatest. The ceramic element lets you mount it higher, 17" to 22" above the counter, for more working room. It is rated 1,125 W and built for 120, 208 or 240V single phase, chosen when you order, and it ships with a toggle switch and indicator light in an attached control box or a remote control enclosure.

Ceramic heat source
The ceramic element lets the heater hang 17" to 22" above the food, so cooks and servers get more working clearance.
Pre-focused heat
Specially shaped reflectors concentrate heat at the edges of the holding area, where heat loss is greatest, so food does not overcook in the middle.
No-sag housing
A continuous extruded aluminum housing with heavy-duty insulation will not sag and keeps the outside cooler.
Brackets included
Adjustable angle brackets set a 1", 1-1/2" or 2" gap under a shelf; tubular stands and overhead hanger posts are factory options.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Approximate shipping weight is 14 lb; add 2 to 8 lb when a remote control enclosure is ordered.
- Have a qualified electrician hardwire the unit to local code. Use supply wire rated for 194°F (90°C): No. 14 AWG copper up to 15 A, No. 12 AWG for 15 to 20 A.
- Mount any remote control enclosure in a cool, dry spot outside the heat zone, never on, under or above the heater.
