Product Description

Overview

The APW Wyott HFW-5DS Hot Food Well is a commercial-grade, drop-in electric holding unit built for restaurants that need reliable performance and fast setup. With five full-size 12" x 20" wells, wet-or-dry operation, and infinite controls, the HFW-5DS gives you flexible, precise heat management for steam table pans, hotel pans and product rotation during service. Designed for foodservice environments, this unit is NSF certified and UL listed, and features a stainless steel top and corrosion-resistant exterior to stand up to daily service in busy kitchens.

Key Features

  • Five full-size (12" x 20") wells — accommodates standard hotel pans for versatile menu staging and easy reconfiguration.
  • Wet-or-dry operation — run as a dry heat well for fried items or add water to create a moist holding environment for sauces and delicate proteins.
  • Infinite controls — precise, stepless temperature adjustment helps you maintain product quality and reduce food waste.
  • Insulated construction with stainless steel top — improves heat retention, reduces energy use, and provides a sanitary, easy-to-clean service surface.
  • Integrated drain — simplifies cleaning and maintenance, speeding turnaround between service periods.
  • Individual pan wells — isolate product zones for better temperature control and safe food handling.
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant exterior — engineered for long service life in high-volume kitchens.
  • NSF & UL certifications — built to meet health-code requirements and safety standards for commercial kitchens.
