  • Pros: The 1/1GN compatibility is a massive time-saver in busy kitchens.
  • Cons: At 45kg, it’s a two-person job to move or reposition safely.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Kitchen in Torquay needed to upgrade their ageing grill to keep up with summer demand for their popular grilled seafood platters. Their old machine was slow and  produced inconsistent results, causing delays during peak hours.

"The Lincat AS3 has been a brilliant addition. The speed and  consistency are spot on. We can now send out perfectly grilled dishes even when we're flat out. Our customers have noticed the quality, and  the kitchen runs so much more smoothly."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

The upgrade helped them reduce dish finishing times by an average of 40%, significantly improving table turnover during the busy tourist season.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a flat, stable, and  heat-resistant countertop for the unit to sit on.
  • Ensure there's at least 150mm of clear space around the grill for proper ventilation.
  • Simply plug the fitted 13-amp plug into a standard wall socket – no electrician required!
  • Before first use, turn it on for a few minutes to burn off any manufacturing residues.

Keeping It Going

  • Always empty and  wipe the removable fat collection tray after each service.
  • Use a damp cloth and  a food-safe, non-abrasive cleaner on the stainless steel surfaces when the unit is cool.
  • Periodically check that the chrome toasting rack is free from any baked-on food debris.
  • Wipe down the grill hood mechanism to ensure the smooth-action lift is maintained.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Salamander Grill

Not sure which salamander grill is the right fit for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get the perfect match.

Power Source

Electric models like this one offer plug-and-play convenience, while gas can offer faster heat-up times but requires a gas line. Choose what suits your kitchen setup.

Size and  Capacity

Think about your pan sizes. A GN-compatible grill saves time, as you won't need to transfer food between containers. Measure your counter space carefully!

Adjustable vs. Fixed Height

An adjustable grill hood offers far more versatility for melting, browning, and  holding, giving your chefs precise control over the finished dish.

Mounting Options

Countertop models are simple to install, but if space is tight, a wall-mounted salamander can be a brilliant space-saver.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like removable drip trays, splash guards, and  smooth stainless steel surfaces. A grill that's easy to clean is more likely to be kept hygienic.
