Halo Heat Technology®
Alto-Shaam cook and hold ovens feature our proprietary Halo Heat technology. Unlike traditional methods, Halo Heat maintains consistent, gentle radiant heat without extreme fluctuations. This ensures better food quality and higher yields by evenly surrounding food without harsh elements or added humidity, delivering superior results customers will appreciate.
Benefits
Prevent protein shrinkage
Halo Heat technology uses a low-density thermal cable to spread heat evenly throughout the oven and avoid extreme temperature fluctuations. This combats protein shrinkage compared to a conventional oven and increases yield. Likewise, the sealed cooking environment traps meat's natural moisture, activating enzymes that tenderize the food much faster than traditional dry aging.
Avoid overcooking or drying out food
The Halo Heat technology in our cook and hold oven line uses low and slow heat to keep food at the highest quality, without adding moisture, harsh heat, or drying fans. Our highly versatile low temperature ovens are easy to operate, allowing you to set parameters so that the oven seamlessly shifts to hold mode when it is time to stop cooking.
Eliminate installation and operating costs
Alto-Shaam cook and hold ovens can be placed anywhere with a ventless and waterless design. Save money by eliminating the need to install or operate a costly traditional ventilation hood. Further, the ovens' efficient waterless design eliminates the need to connect the oven to plumbing or drains, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
