VHL2G specifications

The Vulcan-Hart VHL2G is a high-performance commercial gas range designed to meet the cooking demands of busy kitchens while offering exceptional reliability and efficiency. This model stands out due to its thoughtful engineering combined with modern technologies, making it a favorite among chefs and restaurant owners.

One of the main features of the Vulcan-Hart VHL2G is its dual-fuel capability. The combination of a powerful gas range with electric oven ensures that chefs can harness the precise control of gas for their stovetop cooking while also benefiting from the consistent and even baking capabilities of an electric oven. This dual functionality is particularly advantageous in fast-paced environments where versatility is essential.

The VHL2G comes equipped with a total of six burners, each designed to deliver high BTU outputs, facilitating quick heating and rapid boiling. Individual burner adjustments provide chefs with the flexibility to cook various dishes simultaneously at different temperatures, thus optimizing kitchen efficiency. Additionally, the burners are built with a durable cast iron construction, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear over time.

The oven compartment of the VHL2G is designed with heavy-duty construction, featuring stainless steel interiors that are easy to clean and maintain. The convection fan that circulates hot air ensures that food is cooked evenly, whether baking, roasting, or broiling. A thermostat provides precise temperature control, allowing baking with accuracy, a critical factor in professional kitchens.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Vulcan-Hart VHL2G is its user-centric design. The range is equipped with intuitive controls, ensuring that chefs can operate it smoothly even in the middle of a busy dinner service. Safety features, such as automatic shut-off valves and flame failure protection, enhance the safety of the equipment during operation.

Designed for easy maintenance, the VHL2G includes removable grates and oven racks that promote straightforward cleaning, essential for maintaining hygiene standards in commercial environments. The overall construction of the unit, reinforced with robust stainless steel, stands up to the rigors of everyday use.

In conclusion, the Vulcan-Hart VHL2G is a testament to quality and dependability in commercial cooking appliances. Its combination of powerful gas burners, electric oven capabilities, and thoughtful design caters perfectly to the needs of both chefs and restaurant operators, making it a top choice for professional kitchens.
