• 17K BTU Professional Burner: Provides the ability to use high-temperature cooking methods such as searing, stir-frying, and wok cooking as well as low temperatures suitable for simmering.
• 3-Speed Fan Control: Can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air.
• Convertible to Duct-Free Ventilation: Allows a downdraft cooktop to be placed nearly anywhere in the kitchen using a duct-free conversion kit (not included). This filters and recirculates the air without running ductwork, ideal for kitchens with installation restrictions or ducting limitations.
• Electronic Ignition and Automatic Re-Ignition: Lights burners with an electric spark instead of a pilot light. For more reliable performance, burners are relit if the flame is blown out.
• Full-Width Cast-Iron Grates: Enhance the beautiful look of the cooktop and allow easy movement of cookware around the entire cooking surface.
• Downdraft Ventilation: Integrates the ventilation system into the cooking surface so that a separate hood is not needed. Smoke and odors can be removed and taken outside or filtered and recirculated inside. A duct-free kit is available for purchase separately.
• 5K BTU Even-Heat™ Simmer Burner: A diffuser plate allows more control of the flame at the lowest setting, for more precise simmering and melting.
• 300 CFM Exhaust Rating: Handles the venting requirements of high temperature cooking techniques like pan searing and stir-frying.
• 15K BTU Professional Burner: Reaches the high temperatures required to quickly get liquids to a boil and for high-temperature cooking techniques including getting a great sear on meat.
• Melt Cap: Melt chocolate or butter, simmer delicate sauces, or poach eggs on a low-power burner, thanks to a wider burner cap that shields and diffuses the flame to produce a gentler, low-power heat.
• Stainless Steel Knobs: Enhance the look of the cooktop surface with sturdy construction that adds to their premium feel.
• LP Conversion Kit: Allows you to convert the cooktop so it can be used with LP gas.
