Crown “Do-All” Dual-Pressure Gas Steamer – Model GDA-2

2 Compartments • 8–16 Pan Capacity • 36" Cabinet Base

Engineered for high-volume kitchens that need rock-solid versatility, the Crown GDA-2 combines true pressure steaming with gentle pressure-less cooking in a single footprint. A 250,000 BTU gas boiler delivers instant, consistent steam while rugged 304 stainless-steel construction, built-in water treatment, and CSD-1 compliant safety controls keep you cooking—and compliant—shift after shift.
