Cooking Equipment
Compare menu, peak service and cooking methods. Plan fuel or electrical supply, extraction and service access, then use the exact model information to choose equipment for your service.
Choose equipment by the cooking task.
Compare each appliance within its cooking task. Burner layouts, usable plate area, oven rack capacity and fryer oil volume describe different jobs; a single capacity measure cannot compare the whole department.
Choose the format for the job.
Menu, peak service and cooking methods
Compare each appliance within its cooking task. Burner layouts, usable plate area, oven rack capacity and fryer oil volume describe different jobs; a single capacity measure cannot compare the whole department.
Plan the complete installed configuration
Confirm fuel or electrical supply, extraction and service access. Check appliances, supplied accessories and installation components. Use the actual dimensional drawing and installation manual before ordering.
Fit means more than equipment width.
Exterior & operating footprint
Fuel or electrical supply, extraction and service access. Use the exact model’s dimensional drawing and installation instructions.
Capacity & access
Menu, peak service and cooking methods. Confirm the actual model’s usable configuration rather than relying on the category name.
Doorway & delivery route
Measure entrances, corridors, turns, stairs and elevators. Obtain packaged dimensions and weight as well as installed dimensions. Confirm delivery and placement arrangements before ordering.
Electrical supply & receptacle
Check the exact model’s voltage, frequency, phase, rated current, plug and circuit requirements against the site supply and installation manual.
Ventilation & installation space
Confirm intake and discharge locations, required clearances and ambient limits. Preserve access for cleaning and service. An illustrative image does not establish installation clearance.
Fuel, water & site connections
Confirm the exact model’s gas type or electrical supply. For equipment that uses water or steam, verify water quality, filling and drainage instructions. Use qualified installation support where required by the manufacturer and site.
Capacity, output & included components
Menu, peak service and cooking methods. Appliances, supplied accessories and installation components. Read the exact listing and manufacturer documents before comparing models.
Legs, levelling & installed height
Check supplied legs or feet, complete installed height and the manufacturer’s levelling, mounting and movement instructions. Confirm any separate support or mounting components.
Look beyond the purchase price.
Energy & operating information
Compare documented energy information and operating conditions for the exact model. Review fuel or electrical input and the operating conditions behind output or capacity figures. Compare like cooking tasks under the same documented conditions.
Cleaning & maintenance
Review the exact manual’s cleaning, sanitizing, surface care and service intervals. Plan access to food-contact areas and removable parts, and use the specified products and procedures.
Commercial approvals & suitability
Verify certification and intended use on the actual model’s documentation. Confirm suitability for the proposed application where required; do not assume collection-wide approval.
Warranty, parts & Canadian service
Confirm current Canadian warranty terms, exclusions, installation obligations, claim procedures and local service arrangements for the exact model. Ask about parts and consumables before ordering.
Compare the exact models.
Use current product information and manufacturer documents for every shortlisted model. This checklist is a decision aid; it does not assign specifications to the collection.

A few questions before ordering.
How should I narrow a cooking-equipment comparison?
Start with the menu task and peak output, then compare equipment with the required cooking method. Check working capacity and installation requirements before comparing price.
Can I assume a gas model supports both fuels?
Confirm the exact natural gas or propane configuration and any manufacturer-approved conversion arrangement. Check the selected product’s specifications and included parts.
