Fagor 900 Series 4 Burner Extra High Power Gas Hob 40.8kW

The Fagor 900 Series four-burner countertop gas hob is a heavy-duty cooking platform built around raw heat output. Each of the four burners delivers 10.2kW, giving a combined output of 40.8kW — a specification that places this firmly in the extra high power category and makes it a practical choice where rapid temperature response and sustained high heat are operational requirements rather than a preference.

In a busy kitchen environment, recovery speed matters. When cold pans hit a hot burner mid-service or stocks are brought to the boil repeatedly across a shift, a hob in this output range handles the load without the kind of heat drop that slows a pass down. The double crown burner design distributes heat more evenly across the base of the pan, which reduces the risk of hot spots and supports more consistent cooking results — a practical advantage when the same burner is being used for sauces, sautéing, and rapid boiling across a single service.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the hob is straightforward to work with:

• Independent front-mounted controls give individual regulation of each burner without interrupting adjacent zones
• The stainless steel construction is durable under commercial use and cleans down efficiently between services
• Countertop format allows placement on an existing fabricated bench or sturdy equipment stand
• Natural gas operation keeps running costs predictable in kitchens already connected to mains gas
• The 900 Series build standard supports consistent performance across extended operating periods

As a countertop unit, installation requires a stable, weight-rated surface capable of supporting 61kg. The hob must be installed with appropriate clearances and connected to a natural gas supply by a Gas Safe registered engineer — this is a legal requirement, not optional. Adequate overhead ventilation is essential given the combined output; existing canopy capacity should be reviewed before installation to confirm it is sufficient for 40.8kW of gas combustion. This unit is supplied for natural gas; LPG conversion availability should be confirmed prior to ordering if that is your supply.

This hob is well suited to mid-sized to busy commercial kitchens where throughput demands high sustained heat — restaurant ranges, hotel banqueting operations, and contract catering environments where multiple large-volume tasks run simultaneously. For smaller operations where this output level would exceed day-to-day requirements, a lower-output model may be a more appropriate fit. Equally, very high-volume sites running continuous double shifts may benefit from a floor-standing range format with additional burner capacity.
