Before you buy
- Choose the wattage for your volume: higher-wattage heavy-duty ovens heat faster, but they may need a dedicated circuit, and the highest-output models a 208 or 240 volt one rather than a standard 120 volt outlet.
- Measure the pans and plates you heat in and compare them with the usable cavity floor, since many commercial models have a flat floor rather than a turntable.
- Check how many programmable presets the keypad stores and whether staff can run a menu item with one touch.
- Confirm the unit carries a Canadian electrical certification mark and that its warranty terms cover commercial use.
- Compare stackability and the top and side clearances the manual requires for ventilation before planning a shelf or a stacked pair.
Common questions
What wattage commercial microwave do I need?
- Light-duty models suit occasional reheating, while busy kitchens that run the microwave constantly are better served by a heavy-duty, higher-wattage oven. Higher wattage shortens heating time per portion, which matters most during peak service. Check the electrical requirement before you choose, because the highest-output units may need a dedicated 208 or 240 volt circuit.
Why do many commercial microwaves have no turntable?
- They spread energy from the top, the bottom or both through stirrers or antennas instead of rotating the food. A flat floor leaves room for wider pans and platters, and there is no turntable or roller ring to break, lose or clean around.
Can I use a household microwave in a restaurant?
- It may work for a while, but it is not built for continuous commercial use, and many household models exclude commercial use in their warranty terms. Food premises inspectors may also look for equipment certified to commercial food equipment standards. A commercial unit is the safer choice for anything beyond occasional staff-room use.
