Description
Spec Series™ 36" Countertop Gas Range
18" Thermostatic Griddle + 18" Even-Heat Hot Top • 80,000 BTUBuilt for relentless commercial workloads, Imperial’s Spec Series™ modular range combines a mirror-polished griddle and a cast-iron hot top in one 36" counter unit. From breakfast classics to low-simmer sauces, you’ll have the precise heat, extra landing space and stainless-steel durability chefs demand—without giving up valuable line footage.
Why This Unit Rocks
- Split-surface versatility – 18" thermostatic griddle for short-order speed; 18" heavy-duty hot top for stock-pots, sauté pans or holding.
- High-output burners – 30,000 BTU “U” burner under the griddle + 40,000 BTU “U” burner under the hot top for a combined 80,000 BTU (23 kW).
- Precision temperature control – Snap-action thermostat (gt36) maintains your target within ±15 °F across the griddle plate.
- Even heat, fast recovery – Aeration baffles distribute heat and speed rebound during rush periods.
- 5" (127 mm) deep landing ledge – Stage plates, squeeze bottles or ladles right in front of the action.
- Easy grease management – 4" (102 mm) wide gutter feeds a 1-gal. (3.8 L) removable can for fewer empty trips.
- All-stainless exterior – Front, sides, backguard and ledge resist corrosion and wipe clean in seconds.
- Cast-aluminum knobs with heat-protecting grip stay cool and stand up to daily abuse.
- Certified ETL & NSF for gas safety, sanitation and performance.
