This unit was designed to operate with a reduced amount of oil as compared to
previous models. Additionally it is designed with software driven controls that optimize
oil life. Typically operators can expect 30 days of useful life from one vat of oil before
replacement is required. These results vary based on the amount and frequency of
product cooked and the operators adherence to a consistent maintenance schedule,
which includes operator specific settings, filtering and polishing frequency, and
cooking habits.

W.A.S.S.H. is an acronym that Henny Penny uses to describe the environmental
elements that breaks down oil prematurely, shortening the useful life of the oil, which
drives up the cost of ownership. They are as follows:
• Water - Moisture naturally occurring in product along with other sources of water
degrades oil. Reducing water contamination by filtering often and cleaning off
excessive ice crystals before dropping product can extend the life of the oil.
• Air - Oil slowly oxidizes when it is in contact with air. Properly maintaining the fryer
mechanically and hygienically, and following recommended cooking procedures
can reduce oil usage. Close the lid when the unit is not in use.
• Salt - Salt within product and breading makes its way in to the oil during the cooking
process. Reducing additional salt contamination by following best practices when
breading, cooking, and seasoning product increases oil life. Never season or shake
excess breading off over a vat of oil.
• Soap - Soap residue, even in undetectable amounts, left behind after the washing
process degrades oil. Ensure vats are rinsed thoroughly after washing to protect oil
life.
• Heat - The controls are designed to make frying product the most efficient process
as possible. Following best practices when using the Henny Penny fryer ensures
the longest oil life possible. One best practice is selecting a product menu and
placing the fryer in Cool Mode when not in use.
