Parry US9 Gas Salamander Grill | Counter-Mounted

The Parry US9 is a counter-mounted gas salamander grill built for commercial kitchens that need reliable overhead heat throughout service. It runs on natural gas with piezo ignition, includes an automatic flame failure device, and offers variable temperature control — giving kitchen teams consistent, repeatable results across a range of finishing tasks.

In a working kitchen, a salamander earns its place during service rather than as a standalone cooking station. The US9 handles the finishing work that keeps plates moving: melting cheese, caramelising toppings, crisping skin, browning sauces and gratin work. Variable heat control means it can be dialled back for delicate finishing or pushed harder when the pass is under pressure. The reversible branding plate, included as standard, adds a useful layer of versatility without requiring additional equipment.

Practical day-to-day advantages include:

• Piezo ignition for reliable, tool-free lighting at the start of every service
• Automatic flame failure device for safe operation in a busy environment
• Variable temperature control for consistent results across different dishes and finishes
• Reversible branding plate included as standard, broadening cooking capability
• Stainless steel construction for durability and straightforward daily cleaning

As a counter-mounted unit, the US9 needs a stable, heat-resistant surface at a practical working height, with sufficient clearance above and around it for safe use. It connects via a half-inch BSP gas fitting, and your installer will need to confirm supply pressure and connection route before commissioning. Installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

The US9 is well suited to smaller catering operations — cafés, bistros, pub kitchens, and compact restaurant kitchens — where a dependable finishing station is needed without the footprint of a larger overhead grill. Sites running higher volumes or requiring continuous finishing output across extended service periods may find a heavier-duty model with greater burner output a better fit.
