Alto-Shaam  Rotisserie Ovens - AR-7EVH-SGLPANE

Produce succulent, evenly roasted poultry and proteins anywhere—without the cost and complication of a dedicated exhaust hood.

Features                    

• Ventless, duct-free operation — integrated hood with 530 CFM filtration (grease + charcoal) lets you install almost anywhere.
• EcoSmart efficiency — cooks a full load on only 8.3 kW, then automatically drops to a low-energy hold mode.
• High-volume output — seven angled spits handle up to twenty-eight 2.5 – 3 lb (1.1 – 1.4 kg) chickens or twenty-one 3.5 lb (1.6 kg) birds  (98 lb / 44 kg max).
• Cook & Hold in one — electronic LED controller offers one- or two-stage cooking, 250–425 °F (121–218 °C) roasting, and automatic hold at 140–210 °F (60–99 °C).
• Showcase quality — single-pane low-e flat glass door, recessed lighting and incremental rotation jog present product brilliantly and stop rotation whenever the door opens.
• Built for the rush — heavy-gauge stainless-steel construction, solid rear panel to retain heat, and a ½ hp motor for dependable spit rotation.
• Clean-up made easy — removable spits, rotating disk, drip strips and a stainless drip pan with drain speed daily maintenance.
• Stack-ready flexibility — pair with another AR-7EVH or matching holding cabinet to multiply capacity without adding floorspace.
