Parry AG4H Four-Burner Gas Hob Unit

The Parry AG4H is a four-burner gas hob unit designed for commercial catering use. It operates on natural gas or LPG — supplied with a conversion kit and set to LPG as standard — and connects via a standard ¾ BSP fitting. The unit can be positioned as a countertop unit or mounted on a separate floor stand, giving operators a degree of flexibility when fitting it into an existing kitchen layout.

In practice, this type of hob is well suited to operations where consistent, controllable heat across four burners is the priority. Variable burner controls allow chefs to manage different cooking tasks simultaneously, and the flame failure device cuts the gas supply automatically if a burner extinguishes — a standard safety requirement in any commercial kitchen environment. The enamelled pan supports are robust enough for daily service and straightforward to remove for cleaning.

Operators commonly find this unit useful for:

• Smaller restaurant or café kitchens needing a compact gas cooking solution
• Mobile catering setups where LPG is the primary fuel source
• Supplementary hob capacity during a kitchen refurbishment or fit-out
• Sites where natural gas supply is already in place and conversion is straightforward

Installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and adequate ventilation in line with current regulations is required. If you are mounting the unit on a worksurface rather than a dedicated stand, it is worth confirming that the surface can bear the weight before committing to a position.

This unit is best suited to lower- to mid-volume operations. Kitchens running continuous high-volume service may find a heavier-duty range or higher-output hob a more practical long-term choice.
