Hatco CHW-43 Countertop Cook and Hold Well 4x Third-Size Pan Capacity

The Hatco CHW-43 Countertop Cook and Hold Well is a high-capacity, multi-pan unit designed to both rethermalize and hold food at safe serving temperatures. With the ability to accommodate up to four 1/3-size pans, it allows operators to serve multiple menu items from a single compact footprint, making it well suited for buffets, concession areas, and busy commercial kitchens.

As part of Hatco’s cook and hold series, this unit goes beyond standard warmers by providing the power needed to reheat pre-cooked foods while maintaining consistent temperatures during service. It supports both wet and dry operation, though moist heat is recommended for optimal performance and food quality. A dry indicator lamp alerts users when water levels are low, helping protect the unit and maintain efficient operation.

The warmer features a separate lighted On/Off rocker switch and an adjustable thermostatic control for accurate temperature management. Its construction includes a thicker .8 mm stainless steel pan with a durable stainless steel housing and aluminized steel bottom, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding environments. A pan edge offset helps prevent condensation from dripping onto surrounding surfaces, keeping the workspace cleaner.

Operating at 1800 watts on a standard 120V connection, this unit delivers strong heating performance for both rethermalizing and holding applications. cULus, UL EPH, and CE certifications confirm compliance with commercial safety and sanitation standards, making it a reliable choice for foodservice operations that require flexibility, efficiency, and consistent results.
