The lifespan for wood-fired ovens is typically about 10 years, but can be longer, depending on use and care.
As with other cooking equipment, purchasing the appropriate size wood-fired oven for an operation is key. Wood-fired ovens that are too small for an operation will slow down service and cause backup orders. Ovens that are too big will not only waste space but also won’t be used to capacity, wasting fuel and dollars.
Wood-burning ovens tend to have a time-honored appeal since these units are most common in pizza operations.
Popular in breakfast spots and sandwich shops, conveyor toasters can be key to a good meal and a good customer experience.
Conveyor ovens have a service life of up to 30 years but generally last about 20 years.
With many types of conveyor ovens available, the best option depends on the application and operation.
