It ’ s about flexibility for longevity , investing in a machine with a life expectancy of 20 years spiral ovens consume significantly less energy than the linear microwave and other cooking equipment , and are more efficient in terms of labor costs .
“ The spiral oven replaced two linear electric belt grills so there was an immediate savings in electrical energy , labor and space ,” says Croteau . “ It is a compact piece of equipment and requires fewer personnel to produce the same output .”
Some spiral ovens can also run off natural gas , which is typically less expensive than electricity .
“ The cost to cook sliced bacon on a spiral oven is about one-third the cost of a linear microwave oven that uses electricity ” Cowherd explains .
