Why your Carter-Hoffmann food warmer & holding cabinet is not heating
When a Carter-Hoffmann food warmer & holding cabinet is not heating, here's what you'll usually notice: appliance runs but doesn't reach set temperature. Failed heating element, igniter, or thermal fuse. More often than not it traces back to a bad control board.

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: confirm the food warmer & holding cabinet has power, any gas supply valve is open, and a simple reset — power off 60 seconds, back on — doesn't restore heat. If it's still acting up after that, no spark or flame usually means the igniter or gas valve itself has failed, and gas-carrying parts are restricted to licensed work in most jurisdictions.
