#@@# Plancha Surface#@#
A 3/4-inch thick plancha provides high thermal mass for stable searing and rapid recovery during back-to-back orders. Chefs maintain consistent cook temperatures across the full 18-inch surface, reducing product variation and yield loss.
#@@# Manual Controls#@#
Manual valves give direct tactile response for immediate flame adjustment and predictable heat management. Kitchen staff can adjust output without delay, minimizing training time and reducing service errors.
#@@# Open Cabinet Base#@#
An open cabinet with a stainless front and black interior shelves stores pans and tools under the cook surface for a streamlined workflow. Teams can access accessories quickly, cutting movement between stations and lowering service cycle times.
#@@# Adjustable Legs#@#
Six-inch adjustable stainless steel legs allow precise leveling on uneven floors and maintain clearances for sanitation. Maintenance crews can perform routine cleaning and inspection with fewer obstructions, improving compliance with health codes such as CSA and NSF.
#@@# Ventilation Riser#@#
A four-inch flue riser channels heat and combustion products upward to enhance hood performance and protect surrounding surfaces. Engineers design the riser to integrate with standard ventilation systems, preserving kitchen air quality and hood efficiency.
#@@# Construction Durability#@#
Stainless front, black sides, and reinforced shelves combine to support heavy use while resisting corrosion and wear in commercial environments.
