How we repair your Holding Cabinet
A holding cabinet is an insulated commercial cabinet that keeps cooked food at safe serving temperature, often with humidity control, for long periods. A holding cabinet uses heating elements or lamps, a thermostat or digital control, and sometimes a water pan or humidity system. A technician tests the elements and controls, checks temperature accuracy and inspects door seals and fans.
Holding equipment that drops below safe temperatures can lead to health code violations, so these calls are scheduled quickly.
