Comstock-Castle FHP36-24B Gas Charbroilers

Comstock-Castle 36″ Countertop Hotplate / Griddle & Cheesemelter

Replace three separate pieces of equipment with one high-performance workhorse. This Comstock-Castle combination unit delivers intense open-top heat, a precision ground griddle, and a built-in cheesemelter—all inside a 36 inch, cabinet-style frame that drops straight onto any countertop or the included 6″ legs.

Why It Belongs In Your Line-Up

• Versatile 3-in-1 Cooking: boil, sauté, or simmer on the open burners, sear on the ¾″ griddle plate, then slide food below to finish, melt, or hold.
• Power To Spare: two heavy-duty star burners (24,000 BTU front / 30,000 BTU rear) plus a dedicated cheesemelter burner bring the total output to 104,000 BTU.
• Durable Construction: welded stainless steel exterior with angle-iron & aluminized inner framing stands up to the busiest kitchens.
• Polished ¾″ Griddle: 24″ × 21″ plate is ground smooth to reduce sticking, surrounded by a 4″ splash guard and a front cold-zone grease trough that feeds a seamless removable drawer.
• Adjustable Cheesemelter Rack: 18″ deep, nickel-plated rack pulls out for easy loading and is 6″ narrower than the griddle for quick access.
• Cool-Touch Bullnose Rail: handy resting spot for pans and utensils while shielding the front-mounted controls.
• Ready For Any Counter: operate flush-mount (15″ overall height) or attach the supplied 6″ legs for additional clearance and airflow.
• Simple Operation: three manual gas valves with standing pilots; factory-set regulators for Natural (4″ WC) or LP (10″ WC).
