Restaurant Gas Range","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Comstock-Castle F32-2LB is a 24-inch heavy-duty restaurant gas range built for tight-footprint kitchens, food trucks, and prep stations that need a a 24-inch lava-rock broiler section working through full service without losing heat. The base is open-front cabinet storage for line-side prep, with no oven.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a real kitchen, the 0 BTU output handles the cooktop and oven workload of a steady service pace without burner-by-burner heat drop. The open-front cabinet base gives you line-side storage for sheet pans, hotel pans, or service-pickup staging instead of an oven cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the right call for tight-footprint kitchens, food trucks, and prep stations where the 24\" lava broiler layout matches your menu mix. If you're feeding a full restaurant line, the 30-inch or 36-inch siblings in Comstock-Castle's 24-inch range family give you more burners on the same chassis. The F32-2LB is sized for prep stations, food trucks, and tight kitchen footprints where width matters more than concurrency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConfigurable Cooktop Mounted on the Welded Range Chassis\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cooktop pairs with the welded range chassis and brings the standard Comstock-Castle controls, valves, and ignition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOpen-Front Cabinet Base for Line-Side Storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn place of an oven cavity, the base is an open-front cabinet with a galvanized steel interior, sized to hold sheet pans, hotel pans, or service-pickup product behind a stainless steel front. Cabinet construction matches the cooktop chassis with welded angle iron framing and a stainless steel exterior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWelded Stainless Steel Chassis on 6-Inch Heavy-Duty Pipe Legs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cabinet is welded, not bolted: angle iron and aluminized steel inner frame, stainless steel exterior, double-wall construction with heavy fiberglass insulation between the walls. Welded chassis stay square through years of hot-cold cycling and the daily abuse of pots banging against the front rail; bolted construction works loose after a couple of seasons and shows up as a rattle in the door and a misaligned cooktop. The double-wall insulation keeps the outside surfaces cool enough that a line cook can lean in to plate without flinching, and it cuts the radiated heat your hood has to deal with. The F32-2LB stands on six-inch heavy-duty stainless steel pipe legs with adjustable feet so you can level it on an uneven kitchen floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e500°F Thermostat, 100% Safety Shut-Off, and Brass Top Burner Valves\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the pilot ever drops, the 100% safety shut-off cuts gas flow at the oven within seconds with no manual reset wand-walk required. Each top burner runs its own brass valve, which holds up against grease ingress in a way plated-steel valves do not (plated valves pit and seize after a year of line service). Pressure regulators are factory-set to 4 inches of water column for natural gas or 10 inches for propane, and the manifold is 3\/4-inch NPT. Controls are tested before the unit ships and pressure regulators come factory-set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSister Configurations in the Same Chassis for Different Menu Mixes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis F32-2LB ships as the configuration described above. If a menu pulls heavier on a different cooking method, the same 24-inch chassis is available as separate SKUs that swap open-burner pairs for 12-inch, 24-inch, 30-inch, or 36-inch griddles, radiant charbroilers, hot tops, or cheesemelters in 12-inch increments. The F32-2LB is the right call when this specific cooktop layout matches how your line actually cooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFactory Accessories for Bake, Hood, and Service Programs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOptional add-ons available from the factory include casters for rolling cleanout, extra oven racks, pizza decks for the oven, FD oven thermostats, oven spark pilots, chrome griddle plates, 1-inch-thick griddle plates, griddle thermostats, safety-pilot griddles, lift-off griddles, automatic grill scrapers, hose and quick disconnects, control protection bars, low backs, and a storage base that replaces the oven cavity for kitchens that need cabinet storage more than oven capacity. These are factory accessory SKUs added to the order at purchase; they do not ship with the base F32-2LB unit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Comstock-Castle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51275895537949,"sku":"F32-2LB","price":6820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/55954_F32-2LB_dcf714a3-a491-47b1-b151-d2c2b457c9a1.png?v=1779649400","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/comstock-castle-f32-2lb-24-in-restaurant-gas-range","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
