• Heat lamps for 27" deep pro wall hoods

Answer:

Heat Lamp Use

• The Pro Hood Heat Lamps will produce heat that reaches the Wolf backsplash accessory shelves and the Wolf 20" riser shelf.
• Heat lamps work best for food placed 12-18" below the bottom of hood.

Product Use Without Heat Lamp

• Using the hood without bulbs in place will not harm the hood.
• There is no insert or cover available to fill the heat lamp receptacle if no heat lamp is installed.

Purchasing

• Heat lamps are not included with the hood, but are available at any hardware store.
• Wolf offers white heat lamp bulbs for purchase from a Parts Distributor, part #805344.

Heat Lamp Bulb Information

27" deep wall hoods are equipped with two heat lamp receptacles that require R40 or BR40, 250W maximum bulbs (white, clear, and red bulbs are acceptable for use).

• Standard bulbs are incandescent, but halogen bulbs can be used.
• Bulb socket is standard, so bulbs other than heat lamps can fit.
• Wolf recommends using the white heat lamp to take full advantage of the Heat Lamp feature.
  • A 'spot type' bulb would work and have similar temperature ratings.

It is important to match the diameter of the bulb so the recess area around the bulb is not exposed to excess heat. A bulb of smaller diameter should not be used.

• This bulb type will not produce the infrared effect required to deliver the heating effect of our specified bulb.
