Commercial steamer FAQs
Do commercial combi ovens have a steam option?

How do commercial steam ovens work?
Commercial steam ovens heat a small amount of water inside the built-in boiler and then release it into the oven. This is then forced around the oven (much like the air in a convection oven) and does the cooking. Steam cooks faster than air because it is often hotter, so the process is often much faster depending on the steam oven you have.
