Benefits

Better temperature control

Better production rate and capacity

Year-round savings

Energy Star kitchen equipment use less energy through smarter design, including better insulation and gaskets, using infrared heating, and improved controls for temperature and humidity. Beyond energy savings, better kitchen equipment can help you use less water (steam) and increase the amount of food you're able to cook.
