2. Serve product from the outside edges first. The product
closest to the door opened often will cool fastest.
3. Only leave the doors open when demand requires. During
slow periods, keep the doors closed.
When checking the HCW to make sure it’s holding the
product properly, use a temperature probe or pocket
thermometer on the product and the water in the bottom of
the unit. The product is kept warm by radiant heat and
checking the air temperature inside the HCW will NOT
indicate if the product is holding at the proper temperature.
Also, even though the unit has a thermometer on the con-
trols for the water temperature, it may not accurate.
