Southbend P18C-P Platinum Heavy Duty Range

Boasting a cooking power of 16,000 BTU, this 18" heavy-duty commercial gas range has a plancha at the top and a cabinet at the bottom to create a powerful cooking station that can help you meet daily demand. The front two-thirds of the cooking surface can get as hot as 800 degrees Fahrenheit for that perfect searing while the rest supports lower cooking temperatures ideal for finishing the meals. The plate is made of half-inch thick reinforced steel and is fitted with cast-iron burners that have excellent heat retention to keep preheat and recovery time short. The plate is slightly raised so you can easily clean the cooking surface.

The front of the plancha is a 5" deep rail while the rear and sides have splash guards to keep grease and food debris from escaping the unit. There are also 3" wide collection trays set up on the sides to separate waste from the previous cooking session.

This commercial range is mostly stainless steel-from the front, sides, cabinet, rear, exterior bottom, and 6" legs to protect from rust and corrosion. The lining and burner box are fully insulated to keep the operation efficient. Heat and smoke produced by the plancha during cooking are steered away from the user and into the vent hood by the 5" high stainless steel flue riser.

This heavy-duty range comes with CSA and NSF certifications. The unit can be integrated into a battery in any position.
