The Pitco SG14S is a free-standing single-tank tube fryer running on LPG, built around Pitco's Solstice burner system. It is designed for continuous frying in busy commercial kitchens where consistent oil temperature and reliable recovery are non-negotiable during service.

The Solstice burner design sits at the heart of this fryer's performance. Where conventional tube fryers can struggle to maintain oil temperature when cold product is dropped in volume, the SG14S recovers quickly between loads. This keeps frying times consistent, reduces oil absorption into food, and helps deliver crisper results across a sustained service period. The burner configuration also lowers flue temperatures compared to older tube designs, which is a practical benefit in kitchens where heat build-up affects staff comfort and ventilation demands.

From an operational standpoint, the stainless steel construction holds up well under the daily demands of a working kitchen — straightforward to wipe down during service and to clean thoroughly at the end of the day. The large-bore drain valve makes oil changes faster and more manageable, which matters when fryer downtime needs to be kept to a minimum.

  • Fast temperature recovery between consecutive loads during peak service
  • Consistent frying results with reduced oil absorption into food
  • Lower flue temperatures compared to conventional tube fryer designs
  • Robust stainless steel construction suited to daily commercial use
  • Large drain valve speeds up oil changes and end-of-day cleaning

The SG14S is well suited to sites with an LPG supply where mains natural gas is not available — hotels, event catering operations, and sites in areas without a mains gas connection are typical applications. It handles moderate to busy frying demand reliably and is a practical choice for a main frying station or as a dedicated fryer for a specific product line. For very high-volume operations running multiple frying loads simultaneously throughout service, a larger-capacity model may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this fryer is the right match for your service volumes, fuel supply, or kitchen layout, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this fryer suitable for an LPG-only site without mains natural gas?

Yes, the SG14S is specifically configured for LPG operation, making it a practical choice for sites that do not have access to a mains natural gas supply — including rural locations, temporary venues, and some older buildings. You will need a correctly regulated LPG supply and a suitably rated flexible connection; your gas engineer will confirm the specifics during installation.

What volume of frying can the SG14S realistically handle during a busy service?

The SG14S is well suited to a main frying station in a moderate to busy operation — a pub kitchen, hotel restaurant, or mid-sized café handling consistent frying demand throughout service. The Solstice burner recovers temperature efficiently between loads, which keeps throughput steady. For very high-volume sites running continuous back-to-back frying across multiple product lines, it is worth discussing whether a higher-output model would better suit your demand.

What are the key installation requirements for the SG14S?

The fryer requires a certified LPG gas connection and must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. It will need to sit beneath a suitable canopy extract system to manage heat and cooking vapours — your ventilation contractor should be involved early in the planning process. At 71kg the unit is manageable to position, but access routes and final placement should be confirmed before delivery. Allow adequate clearance at the rear and sides as required by current catering equipment installation guidelines.
