The Comstock-Castle FHP30-18 Gas Griddle
The Comstock-Castle FHP30-18 is a 30 inch wide countertop gas griddle and hotplate combination from the FHP Series, built in Quincy, Illinois for lines that want a flat top and open burners in one body. A 18 inch manual griddle section runs on two burners at 18,000 BTU, and a 12 inch hotplate section carries two cast iron star burners at 24,000 BTU each under 12 x 12 inch cast iron grates. 84,000 BTU total, shipped set up for natural gas or propane as you specify.
One gas connection, one 28 inch deep footprint, and the griddle and burners share a 4 inch bull nose landing so the unit reads as a single piece on the counter. Eggs and hash browns on the griddle, a stock pot or saute pan on the open burners next to them.
18 Inch Griddle With 3/4 Inch Polished Steel Plate
The griddle plate is 3/4 inch highly polished steel, 18 inches wide by 21.25 inches deep, with a 4 inch splash guard and a front cold zone grease trough that drains through a 3.5 x 1 inch slot into a seamless removable grease drawer. A 1 inch plate, chrome plating and grooved surfaces are factory options.
Two Open Burners at 24,000 BTU on Cast Iron Grates
The open burners are cast iron star pattern at 24,000 BTU each, set under 12 x 12 inch solid cast iron grates with a spillover bowl that reflects heat back to the pot. The grates are flat across the top section so pots slide between burners without lifting.
Manual Brass Gas Valves With Standing Pilots
Every burner is set by hand through a brass gas valve with an automatic standing pilot. Pressure regulators are factory set for the gas you order, 4 inch WC natural gas or 10 inch WC propane, on a 3/4 inch NPT manifold.
Double Wall Insulated Stainless Steel Body
Corrosion resistant stainless steel welded over angle iron and aluminized inner framing, double wall construction with heavy insulation, on heavy duty stainless pipe legs with adjustable feet. Clearance to non-combustible surfaces is zero at the sides and 4 inches at the rear; the open burner section is approved for non-combustible locations only.
About Comstock-Castle
Founded in 1838 in Quincy, Illinois, Comstock-Castle is America's oldest stove manufacturer still in operation. The company grew from a frontier hardware shop into a grey-iron foundry that helped make Quincy the nation's stove-production hub by the early 1900s. Seven generations later, Comstock-Castle still designs and union-builds commercial cooking equipment in the same Quincy facility, with ranges, griddles, charbroilers, fryers, and modular cook lines configurable from 24 to 72 inches to match your menu. Built to outlast the kitchens that put them on the line.
