Introduction

Oven Description and Specifications

Cooking in a convection oven differs from cooking in a conventional deck or range oven since heated air is constantly recirculated over the product by a fan in an enclosed chamber. The moving air con- tinually strips away the layer of cool air surround- ing the product, quickly allowing the heat to pene- trate. The result is a high quality product, cooked at a lower temperature in a shorter amount of time.

Blodgett convection ovens represent the latest ad- vancement in energy efficiency, reliability, and ease of operation. Heat normally lost, is recircu- lated within the cooking chamber before being vented from the oven: resulting in substantial re- ductions in energy consumption and enhanced oven performance.
