ar-7evh specifications

The Alto-Shaam Rotisserie Electric with Ventless Hood, model AR-7EVH, exemplifies innovation and efficiency in commercial cooking equipment. Designed specifically for restaurants, catering services, and other foodservice operations, this rotisserie combines advanced technologies with user-friendly features to deliver delicious, perfectly cooked results every time.

One of the standout features of the AR-7EVH is its efficient cooking system. Utilizing patented Halo Heat technology, this electric rotisserie ensures consistent, even cooking without the need for traditional heating elements. This cooking method gently circulates warm air around the food, locking in moisture and flavor. As a result, operators can achieve that desirable crispy skin and tender, juicy interior on various proteins, including chicken, ribs, and pork.

The Ventless Hood system is another remarkable characteristic of the AR-7EVH. It provides an advanced filtration system that allows operators to place the unit virtually anywhere in the kitchen without the need for an external ventilation system. This feature is particularly advantageous in urban environments or smaller kitchens where space is at a premium. The integrated hood captures and filters smoke, grease, and odors, ensuring a cleaner kitchen atmosphere while complying with local health and safety regulations.

Flexibility in operation is further enhanced by the AR-7EVH’s capacity. It accommodates up to seven whole chickens at a time, making it a high-production unit suitable for busy establishments. The rotisserie also features easy-to-use controls, allowing staff to set cooking times and temperatures with precision. A programmable timer ensures that operators can prepare multiple batches with minimal oversight.

Maintenance is simplified with the AR-7EVH thanks to its easy-to-clean design. The removable drip tray and sturdy construction make cleanup straightforward, helping to maintain high standards of hygiene in the kitchen.

Overall, the Alto-Shaam Rotisserie Electric with Ventless Hood AR-7EVH stands out due to its innovative technology, flexible cooking capabilities, and efficient use of space. This unit is an ideal choice for food service professionals seeking a reliable and effective solution for rotisserie cooking while ensuring compliance with ventilation requirements.
