Cooking in a convection oven differs from cooking in a 
conventional deck or range oven since heated air is con-
stantly recirculated over the product by a fan in an en-
closed chamber. The moving air continually strips away 
the layer of cool air surrounding the product, quickly al-
lowing  the  heat  to  penetrate.  The  result  is  a  high  qual-
ity product, cooked at a lower temperature in a shorter 
amount of time.
Blodgett convection ovens represent the latest advance-
ment in  energy  efciency, reliability, and  ease  of opera-
tion. Heat normally lost, is recirculated within the cooking 
chamber before being vented from the oven: resulting in 
substantial reductions in energy consumption and en-
hanced oven performance.
