It drops into a counter cutout and disappears into the millwork, leaving a flush stainless steel top with a full size pan opening where guests only see food, never equipment. The well accepts a standard 12 x 20 inch pan or any combination of fractional pans that fills the same opening, so one unit serves a compact hot line straight out of the pans the food was prepped in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInfinite Heat Control with Indicator Light\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn infinite control knob adjusts the well continuously rather than clicking between low, medium, and high, so you can hold a delicate cream sauce just below a simmer or keep chili at full serving temperature with the same dial. The lighted knob mounts in a remote control panel on a flexible lead, so it lands wherever the counter fabricator needs it, facing the server side and away from guest hands, and the indicator light confirms at a glance that the well is live.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSealed 304 Stainless Steel Wells\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top and the well are formed from 18 gauge type 304 stainless steel, the grade that shrugs off steam, salt, and acidic drippings that corrode lighter 430-series metal. The well is sealed, so spills and condensate stay inside the vessel instead of leaking into the counter cavity below, the failure that ruins laminate millwork around cheaper open-frame warmers. A 20 gauge type 430 stainless steel apron and back panel close off the underside, and fiberglass insulation keeps the heat in the food instead of radiating into the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBuilt-In Water Drain\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe well drains through a built-in 1 inch corner drain, which changes closedown from bailing hot spillage water with a pitcher to opening a valve. For wet holding, fill the well with water for gentle, even bain marie heat; for dry holding, run it empty. Either way the drain empties the vessel in minutes at the end of service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDrop-In Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unit needs a 23.5\" x 15.63\" counter cutout and a 72 inch cord to reach power, and the whole assembly sits 16.5 inches wide by 10 inches deep below the counter line. Because the heat stays in insulated, sealed wells, the surrounding counter stays usable as landing space for plates and serving tools right up to the pan flange.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prepline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52786308907293,"sku":"HFW1","price":510.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/78748_hfw1.jpg?v=1787209187","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/prepline-hfw1-one-pan-electric-drop-in-hot-food-well-sealed-well-infinite-control-120v","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
