Isolate Power & Gas Before Servicing Commercial Gas Equipment

Isolating power and gas is the first, most important step before cleaning burners, opening a gas train, or touching any ignition components. Done right, it prevents unexpected ignition, fuel release, shock, and equipment damage. This post gives technicians a precise, repeatable procedure you can embed in your SOPs. What “Isolate Power/Gas” Means Why both? Many

Reducing exhaust to improve yellow or lazy flame

Why reducing exhaust can help (in some cases) Think of the kitchen as an air-balance equation: Exhaust (out) – Make-Up Air (in) = Pressure deficit (ΔP). In short: you’re not “adding oxygen” by reducing exhaust — you’re removing excessive suction so the oxygen already being supplied can actually reach the burners without being whisked away

Griddle Plate Thickness: 20 mm vs 25 mm – How It Affects Cooking Performance

When choosing between a 20 mm and a 25 mm griddle plate, the difference lies in thermal mass. A 25 mm plate holds heat better and minimizes temperature drop under heavy loads, but requires longer preheat and slower response to temperature changes. Learn how thickness impacts performance, recovery, and productivity.
