LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug unit and shut gas at valve before cleaning. Remove rack and crumb tray; wash with warm, soapy water and rinse. Wipe stainless steel exterior with non-abrasive cleaner and soft cloth. Clean burner area with brush; clear vents of grease to reduce fire risk. Inspect and clean pressure regulator and gas connections; tighten fittings if needed. Dry all parts completely before restoring gas and power. Regular cleaning reduces bacteria, fire risk, energy use, and repair costs.#@@#Additional Info#@#Asber’s AECM-24-NG 24" natural gas cheesemelter offers 20,000 BTU with infrared heat, manual controls, three rack positions, removable crumb tray, stainless steel front and sides, and CSA/cETLus certifications.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop settling for slow, inconsistent melt cycles. This natural gas cheesemelter delivers targeted infrared heat and streamlined controls to produce uniform browning across large trays, enabling kitchens to maintain fast service without sacrificing finish quality. Designed for wall mounting or placement over a range, it supports high-throughput operations with a robust stainless steel exterior and straightforward manual control scheme.
#@@# Infrared Heat#@#
Infrared heating generates intense, direct heat that melts and browns cheese quickly while maintaining crisp toppings on pizzas and open-faced sandwiches. Operators achieve repeatable results across full pans thanks to a single 20,000 BTU burner that concentrates energy where kitchens need it most.
#@@# Adjustable Rack Positions#@#
Three rack positions let chefs set the melting distance relative to the heat source to fine-tune color and melt time for different products. Staff can adjust racks quickly during service to switch between delicate melts and aggressive browning without interrupting flow.
#@@# Wall Mount Flexibility#@#
Wall mounting conserves counter space and installs at eye level for efficient plating and visual monitoring during peak periods. Installers receive a wall mount kit with the unit, and the compact footprint fits tight back-of-house layouts while staying accessible to line cooks.
#@@# Durable Construction#@#
Stainless steel front and sides resist corrosion and simplify daily cleaning with smooth surfaces that withstand busy kitchens. A removable crumb tray collects debris and detaches for sanitation, reducing labor time and maintaining consistent heat transfer.
#@@# Gas Conversion Ready#@#
The unit ships with an LP conversion kit and includes a pressure regulator to support field conversions without extended downtime. Certified for cETLus and CSA approvals, the unit meets common commercial gas safety and sanitation standards for institutional and retail foodservice.
