Imperial CIRB-24 Gas Radiant Chargrill | 24" Commercial Chargrill
£2,177.00(£2,612.40 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Imperial CIRB-24 is a gas-fired radiant chargrill built for professional kitchen use. It generates heat through cast iron radiants and heavy-duty cast iron top grates, producing the char markings and flavour development that come from properly grilled food. This is a workhorse unit intended to operate reliably under consistent, demanding service conditions — not for occasional or light use.
In a busy kitchen, the cast iron construction holds and distributes heat evenly across the grate, which supports cooking consistency throughout a full service. The slanted cooking surface creates natural temperature zones, allowing a chef to manage multiple items at different stages simultaneously. Each grate blade incorporates a cast-in grease trough that channels fat forward into a full-width grease gutter and removable drip pan, reducing flare-up and keeping conditions more controlled during service.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the design has been considered with kitchen workflow in mind:
- Grates, radiant covers, and burners all remove without tools, making end-of-service cleaning straightforward
- Removable reinforced cast iron radiants protect burners from clogging and support consistent heat distribution
- Insulated cooktop construction helps conserve energy across extended service periods
- Heavy gauge angle iron chassis with stainless steel front, sides, and landing edge supports long-term durability under heavy use
As a gas appliance, the CIRB-24 requires a suitable gas supply connection and must be installed in a ventilated kitchen with appropriate overhead extraction. Adequate clearance on all sides is necessary for safe operation and cleaning access. Installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This is a countertop-format unit, so a suitable heavy-duty stand or counter surface will need to be in place before installation.
The CIRB-24 is well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, and contract catering operations where chargrilled dishes form a regular part of the menu. It performs reliably at sites running consistent covers where char marks and flavour are operationally important. For very high-volume sites where the chargrill is a core production station, it is worth considering whether a wider or higher-output unit would better match throughput demands.
If you are working out whether this unit fits your kitchen layout, gas supply, or expected service volume, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to an order.
Frequently asked questions
Is the CIRB-24 suitable for a kitchen running 100 or more covers per service?
The CIRB-24 is well matched to kitchens running consistent covers where chargrilled dishes feature regularly on the menu. For sites where the chargrill is under near-continuous production pressure across a long service, it is worth discussing whether a wider unit with greater grate area would give you more comfortable throughput.
What are the installation requirements for this chargrill?
The CIRB-24 requires a suitable gas supply connection and must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. It also requires a ventilated kitchen with adequate overhead extraction, clearance on all sides for safe operation and cleaning access, and a heavy-duty countertop or stand in place before it is fitted.
How straightforward is day-to-day cleaning and maintenance?
The grates, radiant covers, and burners all remove without tools, which makes end-of-service cleaning practical rather than a burden. The cast-in grease troughs and removable drip pan help manage fat during service, reducing the build-up that can make chargrills time-consuming to clean.
