Upgrade your restaurant's grilling capabilities by adding this Vulcan VCRG24-M1 24" countertop natural gas griddle with manual controls to your cooking lineup. Featuring a powerful 25,000 BTU U-shaped aluminized steel burner for every 12" of griddle plate, this unit offers a total of 50,000 BTU. The 1" thick polished steel griddle plate is ideal for your high volume business since its thick design provides greater heat retention and faster recovery for your busiest breakfast shifts.
For long-lasting durability that withstands a harsh commercial environment, this unit boasts a fully welded stainless steel body with an aluminized frame. 4" adjustable legs raise the unit to a more comfortable working height, and when it's time for a thorough cleaning, a 4 1/2 qt. removable grease pan both eases and expedites the process. This unit requires a natural gas connection but can be field converted to liquid propane.
I see that this gas unit is "field-convertible." What does that mean?
Gas equipment is factory-set to use either natural gas or liquid propane. Field-convertible equipment allows your unit to accept the other gas type (so for example a natural gas unit could be converted to use liquid propane), but this conversion must happen before it is used.
For safety reasons, a qualified service professional should perform the conversion. Your equipment’s warranty may require that such conversions be done by a professional, and failure to do so may void warranty coverage.
We recommend that you communicate with your installer to also arrange for the gas type conversion at the time of installation.
My business is at a high elevation; does this change anything when I order gas cooking equipment?
Many gas equipment manufacturers need to make adjustments to the equipment so it operates correctly at elevations over 2,000 feet. Sometimes we can special order from the manufacturer and have your cooking equipment delivered ready-to-go, but in cases where your unit is in stock and waiting to ship, you’ll need to have a qualified service technician come to your location and alter your unit at the time of installation so that it is compatible with a higher elevation. Contact our Special Orders team prior to placing your order, and we will let you know what will work best for the equipment you are planning to purchase.
RESIDENTIAL USERS: Vulcan assumes no liability for parts or labor coverage for component failure or other damages resulting from installation in non-commercial or residential applications. Your warranty will be voided if installed in non-commercial or residential applications.
We purchased this unit because of the brand and the history behind the name. The unit looks very nice. We did install the included propane kit for use in our food truck. We have no issues with lighting as it ignites well each time. The issues that we do have are with temp/flame contriol. It is very difficult to adjust the flame. It is basically either high or low. Very little control in between. We have to have it high to cook properly however then the griddle begins to smoke. So ultimately in our experience the temp control when using this griddle with the propane conversion kit is very poor and difficult.
