Expert Review
Daniel Foster Catering Equipment Maintenance Expert
Expert Review
If your Buffalo contact grill isn't heating up properly on the bottom plate, or it's taking an age to get to temperature, the lower heater element is almost always the culprit. This is the official Buffalo part, so you know it's a perfect fit. It's a straightforward job for a qualified engineer, getting you back to searing paninis perfectly in no time.
Installation & Maintenance
- Always disconnect from mains power before installation.
- We strongly recommend installation by a qualified engineer.
- Keep grill plates clean to protect the element below.
- Test the grill's heating cycle after part replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if my lower heater has failed?
A: Common signs are the lower plate not heating at all, slow pre-heating, or the unit tripping your circuit breaker.
Q: Will this fit my double contact grill?
A: This part fits specific models. Please check if your grill is a CU600, CU601, CU604, CU605, or CU606 before ordering.
Q: Is this difficult to install myself?
A: For safety and warranty reasons, any electrical component should be installed by a certified commercial catering engineer.
