Why Choose This Configuration?
- Multi-Zone Productivity – Run high-BTU Pyromax burners for rapid boil or wok fire, while star and non-clog burners handle sautéing and simmering simultaneously.
- Space Optimization – Convection oven bakes evenly without hot spots; integrated cabinet base eliminates the need for standalone storage racks.
- Service-Ready Design – Front gas shut-off, removable cast-iron grates, and two full-length crumb trays speed nightly cleaning and maintenance.
Intended for commercial kitchens only. Follow local codes for installation under a properly sized and ventilated hood. Oversized cookware (12" +) should be kept to the rear grates to avoid excess front-rail heat.
