The Imperial IB-36 charbroiler is designed for countertop installation in commercial kitchens where space and output need to be balanced. Its 36 inch wide cooking surface provides ample room for grilling steaks, burgers, chicken, and vegetables simultaneously during service. The unit operates on natural gas with a total output of 90000 BTU, delivering consistent broiling heat across the grate surface. Stainless front construction offers durability and ease of cleaning in busy kitchen environments.
This medium-duty charbroiler measures 36 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 12 inches high, with a footprint that fits standard countertop configurations. At 220 pounds, the unit requires adequate structural support and should be positioned on a non-combustible surface with proper clearances per local codes. The 24 inch depth accommodates standard grate sizes while keeping the cooking surface accessible to line cooks during high-volume periods.
Installation requires a natural gas connection sized appropriately for the 90000 BTU load, along with adequate ventilation per mechanical code requirements. The included grates are removable for cleaning and maintenance. The IB-36 is covered by a 1 year parts warranty. Operators should verify that existing gas supply lines and ventilation hoods can accommodate this unit's specifications before installation.
