Model HQT-1
The innovative Hatco Quick Thaw will
reduce thawing times of menu favorites
to a fraction of traditional methods.
FLEXIBILITY
The patent-pending Hatco Quick Thaw

Users can place frozen meat or
vegetables in the device’s chamber,
where the items quickly defrost in a
shower of 69°F (21°C) water from two
non-bruising uniform spray misters.
