Product Description
The Hobart Bonnet Equajet is a six-grid gas combination oven built for sustained, high-volume cooking in professional kitchen environments. It operates across steam, convection, and combination modes, allowing kitchen teams to roast, bake, steam, braise, and regenerate within a single unit. Control is handled through the VisioPad touchscreen interface, which makes programming and recalling cook cycles straightforward even during a demanding service.
In busy kitchens, recovery time between loads is a practical concern, and the gas-fired format of the Equajet is well suited to environments where the oven is being opened and reloaded frequently throughout the day. Consistent heat distribution across the full cavity is a requirement at this level of operation, and the unit is built to deliver repeatable results across different product loads and staffing shifts.
Key operational benefits include:
- Three cooking modes reduce reliance on multiple separate appliances
- Programmable cycles support consistent results regardless of who is operating the oven
- Gas operation can offer running cost advantages over electric in high-use environments
- The VisioPad interface reduces training time and the risk of operator error during service
- Stainless steel construction supports a thorough daily cleaning and hygiene regime
At 108kg, installation planning is essential before the unit arrives on site. It will require a gas supply matched to the correct pressure and flow rate, a properly specified extraction canopy or flue arrangement, and adequate floor loading. Delivery access — including doorways, steps, and ramp availability — should be confirmed early in the process.
The six-grid format is most appropriate for kitchens running consistent covers at medium to high volume — hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, large staff restaurants, and production facilities. Lighter-use or smaller operations may find a four-grid unit a more proportionate choice, while very high-output production sites should consider whether a larger-capacity model would better serve long-term throughput requirements.
If you'd like to talk through gas supply specifications, ventilation requirements, or whether this capacity is the right match for your kitchen, the team is available to help you work through it before placing an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- A six-grid unit is well matched to kitchens running consistent medium-to-high covers throughout the day — hotel operations, contract catering, large staff restaurants, and production kitchens are typical fits. If your volume is lighter or less frequent, a four-grid model may be more proportionate. If you're running a high-output production facility, it's worth considering whether a larger-capacity unit would better serve you over time. We're happy to talk through your actual throughput requirements before you decide.
- The unit requires a gas supply at the correct pressure and flow rate for its burner specification — this should be verified by a Gas Safe registered engineer before installation. Adequate extraction is essential, either through a correctly sized canopy or a dedicated flue arrangement designed for a gas combi at this output level. At 108kg, floor loading and access routes for delivery also need to be considered early in the planning process.
- In high-frequency environments where the oven is running for long periods each day, gas operation can offer a running cost advantage over electric, depending on your local utility tariffs and the relative efficiency of your supply. Gas-fired units also tend to deliver strong heat recovery when the door is opened repeatedly during service, which matters in a busy kitchen. The right choice can depend on what supply infrastructure you already have in place, so it's worth discussing your site's setup before committing.
