How we repair your Vertical Contact Toaster
A vertical contact toaster presses buns against a heated vertical platen and carries them through on a belt to caramelize the cut side. A vertical contact toaster is usually a heating element or plate, a thermostat or temperature sensor, a timer or control board and a thermal fuse for safety. A technician tests the power path, the heating element and the safety devices, and confirms the repair costs less than replacement.
