Pitco Solstice SG14TS Free Standing LPG Tube Fryer

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Pitco SG14TS is a free-standing LPG tube fryer built around Pitco's Solstice burner system. It is a single-tank, floor-standing unit constructed throughout in stainless steel, designed to deliver consistent frying performance across sustained service periods. The tube-style burner configuration positions the heat source directly within the fry pot, which supports efficient energy transfer and helps maintain oil temperature as successive loads pass through.
In a working kitchen, temperature recovery is one of the most important factors in frying quality. The Solstice burner design supports fast recovery after each basket drop, which matters during continuous service when cold product is going in at pace. Maintaining stable oil temperature means shorter cook times and less oil absorption, which in practice produces crisper results and reduces the greasy texture that comes from underpowered or slow-recovery fryers. The burner geometry also helps reduce flue temperatures, which makes the working environment more comfortable around the fryer station.
From an operational standpoint, the SG14TS offers several practical advantages:
- Consistent oil temperature supports repeatable results across a full service
- Stainless steel construction throughout is durable and straightforward to clean down
- Large drain valve speeds up oil changes and end-of-service draining
- LPG configuration suits sites without natural gas supply or with portable gas infrastructure
- Free-standing format allows flexible positioning within the kitchen
Because this unit runs on LPG, it requires a compliant gas connection and must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Adequate ventilation or a suitable extraction canopy above the fryer is a requirement in any commercial installation. At 104kg, the unit is substantial and will need appropriate floor loading consideration. The footprint is relatively compact for a floor-standing fryer, but access around the unit for cleaning and servicing should be factored into kitchen layout planning.
The SG14TS is well suited to fish and chip shops, pub kitchens, fast food operations, and catering establishments where frying forms a core part of the menu. It is a single-tank unit, so operations with very high simultaneous frying volume across multiple product types may want to consider a twin-tank or higher-capacity alternative. For lower-volume sites, a countertop fryer may be a more proportionate choice.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your service volumes or gas setup, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is the SG14TS suitable for a busy fish and chip shop?
The SG14TS is a proven choice for fish and chip operations where frying is the core activity. Its Solstice burner supports the kind of continuous temperature recovery needed when product is going in frequently throughout service. That said, it is a single-tank unit, so very high-volume sites running multiple product lines simultaneously may benefit from a twin-tank or larger-capacity configuration — worth discussing with us if your throughput is substantial.
What are the installation requirements for this LPG fryer?
The unit must be connected to an LPG supply by a Gas Safe registered engineer — this is a legal requirement for any commercial gas appliance. A suitable commercial extraction canopy providing adequate ventilation above the fryer is also required. At 104kg, floor loading should be confirmed before installation, and clear access around the unit should be maintained for both daily cleaning and periodic servicing.
How does the Solstice burner design affect day-to-day frying performance?
The Solstice burner positions heat efficiently within the fry pot, which reduces the time the oil spends below target temperature after each load is added. In practice this means shorter cook times, less oil soaking into the food, and more consistent results across a full service. It also runs at a lower flue temperature than conventional tube fryer designs, which has a noticeable effect on comfort at the fry station during a long shift.
