Unox CombiOven's

Recommended Posts

a few week ends ago , my local PBS had " A Chefs life "  day on Sat.

 

all the shows on season 5

 

i cap these and keep them.  having little to do that afternoon I watched some I had not seen

 

it seems Chef Vivian has a New  ( to me ) large Unox combi oven.

 

consider watching the group show  , 508

 

its a very dangerous show to watch.  re the ovens

 

consider :

and

 

https://usa.unox.com/en/cheftop_gn_1-1_305e

 

I could stand it no longer.  I called them.

 

either that or go outside and freeze my finger and toes off w the blizzard

 

Interesting enough , they were very friendly and helpful.  these are sold from a local agent and

 

the prices are less than ist-ish

 

the 0513-EPR   is 7,000 K USD  and the 0511-EPR  is 6,200  USD.

 

the R refers to the handle on the right.   and its cheaper than getting a handle on the L as most are made this way.

 

each holds  5  1/2 sheet pans.

 

they do need to be plumbed in , as the automatic wash takes a lot of water.  they also would need a drain

 

[ed.: a large bucket ?  suprise.gif.e22fa6058bca7520f290653a645586ba.gif ]

 

now please consider sitting down and have a Personal Beverage  redly available :  a large one would be nice !

 

they come in  three phase or single phase power   .

 

they can sit on a counter top.   weigh about 150 lbs.

 

one model has rubber feet  and won't slide around.  the other does not.

 

I mentioned that I saw these ovens on A Chef's Life, and the person I spoke to actually went and installed the oven

 

if Chef Vivian Howard's restaurant.

 

Although it would be very strange to do .....

 

I could easily put one in the basement which has 240V and a double standard old very large sink(s) of the washer/dryer type 

 

seen in older homes. for dressage  and the water pipes are right there

 

Yikes !

Wow. I expected they'd cost more. Not that 7K is cheap, but still.

 

Are t hey rated for home use? My old Vulcan was a restaurant model and "illegal" to use at home because of heat radiation and lack of insulation.

Dial 1 - 800 - 489-8669

 

tell them you are from eG.    

 

ask about the 

 

XAVC-06FS-GPR

 

its 100 kg  and need a 50 A line.

 

https://usa.unox.com/en/cheftop_gn_2-1_1205pe

 

the 1/2 sheet pan models are 20 A.

 

I asked about eventually having a model w a reservoir and a drain pan.

 

for cooking the reservoir would work, but for cleaning , which uses a lot of water , a drain would be essential.

 

I could put it over the dual deep sinks in the basement !
