Our technicians repair all types of commercial food warmers including heated holding cabinets, drawer warmers, heat lamps, heated display cases, and soup warmers from brands like Alto-Shaam, Hatco, and APW Wyott. Proper hot holding requires maintaining food at 140°F or above — our technicians calibrate and verify all equipment against food safety standards and provide documentation for health inspection records.

Food Warmer Repair FAQs

How often should commercial ice machines be cleaned?

Commercial ice machines should be professionally cleaned and sanitized every 6 months at minimum, or more frequently in hard water areas. The FDA Food Code requires ice machines to be clean and sanitized to prevent mold, slime, and bacterial growth. Between professional cleanings, staff should clean the exterior, ice bin, and scoop holder regularly. Many operators who skip cleaning face costly repairs from scale buildup and potential health code violations.

What are the critical food safety temperatures for kitchen equipment?

Critical food safety temperatures: Cold holding — 40°F (4°C) or below for refrigeration; freezer 0°F (-18°C) or below. Hot holding — 140°F (60°C) or above for steam tables and food warmers. Cooking temperatures vary by food type (145°F-165°F). Dishwasher final rinse — 180°F (82°C) for high-temp machines. Any equipment consistently failing to maintain these temperatures is both a safety risk and a health code violation.
