120 lb capacity • 8 full-size sheet pans • Simple ControlGive your kitchen the legendary Halo Heat advantage—slow-cook, roast, reheat and hold in one stainless-steel cabinet while boosting yield, saving labor and eliminating the need for a ventilation hood in most jurisdictions.
Features
- Halo Heat technology surrounds food with gentle, even heat for up to 15 % less shrinkage and juicier results.
- Automatic cook-and-hold: set your time, walk away, and the oven switches to holding mode when the cycle ends.
- No outside venting required in most areas—cut installation costs and keep your kitchen quieter and cooler.
- EcoSmart engineering lowers energy consumption and provides rapid recovery times.
- Stackable design lets you double capacity without increasing your footprint.

What our Experts Think
- Best-in-class low-temperature cook & hold performance — The 1000-TH/II uses Alto-Shaam’s Halo Heat technology to deliver gentle, radiant heat for slow cooking and precise hot holding without fans or harsh heating elements.
- Maximum product yield & moisture retention — Designed to reduce shrinkage and lock in natural juices, helping kitchens produce higher yields and more tender, consistent results—especially for roasted meats and bulk proteins.
- Built for labor reduction & overnight production — Supports “set-and-forget” cooking, enabling overnight roasting, braising, and holding so kitchens can maximize productivity without constant supervision.
- Ventless, waterless operation advantage — No hood, water line, or drainage required, making it easier to install and more cost-efficient to operate in tight or high-cost kitchen environments.
- Multi-function kitchen versatility — Beyond cooking, it also handles holding, proofing, reheating, and slow processing in one unit, reducing the need for multiple pieces of equipment.
- Consistency-focused professional control — Simple programmable controls ensure repeatable results, helping standardize output across shifts and reducing dependency on skilled labor.
- High ROI through reduced shrink & energy use — Lower cooking losses (less moisture loss) combined with energy-efficient radiant heat helps reduce operating costs over time.
- Trusted commercial “set-and-hold” workhorse — Widely used in institutional kitchens and high-volume foodservice operations where consistency, efficiency, and uptime matter most.
