Designed for operators who require consistent results across a wide range of trays, pans, and menu items, the MT-1826 Series is a dependable solution for professional kitchens of all sizes.

Key Features:

Precise Humidity & Temperature Control: Independent controls for temperature (90°F-190°F / 32°C-88°C) and moisture levels (1-6) let operators dial in ideal holding conditions for a variety of foods and textures.
Removable Humidity Pan: A 12" x 20" stainless steel water reservoir provides consistent moisture and is fully removable for quick refills and cleaning.
Flexible Tray Compatibility: Fully adjustable and removable tray slides accommodate 18" 26" sheet trays, 12" 20" pans, 14" x 18" trays, and GN 1/1 containers-making this series ideal for mixed menus and changing needs.
Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Built with a welded base frame and full insulation, the MT-1826 Series offers long-lasting strength and energy-efficient performance in the most demanding environments.
Operator-Friendly Design: Features include a recessed, up-front control panel, ergonomic magnetic workflow handle, and field-reversible doors (model-dependent) for easy access and adaptable placement.
Energy Star Approved (MT-1826-18): Select models, such as the MT-1826-18, meet Energy Star criteria for energy-efficient performance and cost savings.

The MT-1826 Series is built for kitchens that need versatile tray compatibility, reliable performance, and adjustable control over temperature and moisture-striking the perfect balance between basic humidity systems and full pinpoint-control models. Ideal for holding plated meals, baked goods, or bulk items with consistency and ease.

MT-1826-7-7 - Dual Compartment Moisture-Temp Heated Holding Cabinet

Designed for high-volume operations, this unit accommodates 18" x 26" trays, 12" x 20" pans, 14" x 18" trays, and GN 1/1 containers. Independent controls for temperature and moisture in each cavity allow precise, flexible holding environments, while removable stainless steel humidity pans support easy cleaning and maintenance.

FEATURES

Agency Approvals
UL - The UL mark, which now serves customers in more than 100 countries, has become the authority on product safety. Its engineers test for things like soundness of design, safety of electrical components, and structural integrity of products for which UL listing is sought.
If you think of NSF International classification as protection for your customers, then the mark of Underwriters Laboratories (UL) indicates safety for those who work in your commercial kitchen. The Illinois-based testing agency assures that the equipment that gets its stamp operates safely. There is also a sanitation classification that offers similar assurances about food safety as the NSF mark. Products are indicated as "Classified UL-EPH."
NSF - NSF International (formerly known as the National Sanitation Foundation) is an independent, non-profit organization that certifies food service equipment and ensures it is designed and constructed in a way that promotes food safety. FWE products that meet these standards bear the NSF mark.
You may also see a designation that a product meets NSF/ANSI, which adds rules from the American National Standards Institute to the testing. ANSI works closely with NSF to develop its food safety standards and complete testing to those.
CUL - C-UL mark indicates a product meets the CSA testing standards for Canada.
C-UL-US mark indicates a product meets the UL and CSA testing standards for both the United States and Canada.

OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES

Bumpers
Full Bumper - Heavy duty full perimeter bumper extends beyond doors and handles for added protection. The bumper is mounted to the base frame for added durability - the bumper is not used as the base frame. In this way, the bumper absorbs all the shock in transport, protecting the integrity of the construction.
Caster
Larger & Upgraded Casters - Larger Casters
All Swivel Casters - All swivel casters allow for greater maneuverability. Great for tight turns or severe corners (such as on and off trucks or narrow hallways).
A drawback to the all swivel configuration is that it is harder to control the direction of the equipment when rolled in a straight line.
