XLT conveyor ovens and XLT countertop ovens include a variety of features to help you serve great food quickly and consistently. Their advanced air impingement technology delivers uniform heat for a consistent bake, while the moving conveyor belt manages cook time automatically. XLT ovens are also engineered for lower energy use and offer stackable configurations, so you can scale capacity as your business grows.

If you are opening your first location or replacing a legacy unit with a more efficient XLT SmartSolutions™ oven, Hess can provide end-to-end guidance from selection through installation and training. Contact Hess for more information. 

XLT ovens can help you achieve your business goals by delivering higher-quality food, keeping your kitchens cleaner and cooler, and lowering overall operating costs. They’re easy to use and provide a consistent bake from order to order, helping you deliver the same result every time and build guest loyalty. The ovens are easier to clean than many traditional units, and the simple controls make it easy to train new employees quickly.

Getting the most from an XLT countertop conveyor oven, XLT oven, or XLT oven hood starts with matching the model to your menu, ticket volume, and kitchen staff. Hess will help you:

• Estimate pizzas, sandwiches, and other items per hour for each oven size, to avoid under- or over-buying capacity.
• ​Help anticipate energy savings from adding an XLT hood for ventilation.
• Advise on the right equipment solution for your kitchen, whether a countertop solution, single-deck conveyor, or a stack configuration.

If you’re ready to add an XLT oven to your kitchen, reach out to Hess, and we’ll help match you with the right oven for your space.

Depending on the model and bake time, an XLT pizza oven can substantially improve capacity:

• Compact models like the XLT 1620 are designed to handle several dozen pizzas per hour
• Larger conveyor ovens in the 32" belt family can move into the 100+ pizzas-per-hour range

Contact Hess to walk you through those numbers and help you select the right oven for your kitchen.

XLT ovens are engineered to retain heat with a well-insulated bake chamber and efficient burner and air systems, helping reduce gas and electricity usage. When paired with an XLT hood, many kitchens experience significant reductions in exhaust and conditioned air losses, resulting in lower utility bills over time.

XLT ovens are built for durability and are backed by strong warranty coverage. Countertop conveyor ovens carry an industry-leading warranty term, and many full-size conveyor ovens are available with warranties of up to 10 years when paired with an XLT hood package.

XLT ovens are designed to minimize scheduled maintenance and downtime. The ovens’ smooth interior surfaces and thoughtful component layout make cleaning easier and faster.
