Vollrath's Direct Contact Heating System is the ultimate in performance and efficiency. Learn more about the reasons why below.

Direct Contact Heating System

No Vents = High Efficiency

The heating element is in direct contact with the water for most efficient heat transfer possible. This is coupled with Vollrath's exclusive Thermoset fiber-reinforced resin well, which provides superior insulation for maximum energy efficiency. So much heat is saved that there is no need for vents.

Competitor's Design

Vents = Poor Efficiency

The element is located underneath the well and loses a large amount of heat to the sides and bottom. As a result, vents must be cut into the sides of the warmer to allow the excessive amount of lost heat to escape.
