How Commercial 6 Burner Gas Hobs Work
Commercial gas hobs operate on a brilliantly simple yet effective principle. Natural gas or LPG flows through pipes to the burners, where it mixes with air before ignition. The magic happens when you turn the control knob—piezo ignition systems create a spark that lights the gas, producing a controlled flame. The six burners typically deliver different power outputs—smaller ones for delicate sauces (3.5-4.5kW) and larger ones for rapid boiling or wok cooking (up to 7.5kW). Cast iron supports distribute heat evenly while handling weighty pots, and flame failure devices cut the gas if the flame goes out—essential safety in busy kitchens!

Top Tips for Using Commercial 6 Burner Gas Hobs
To maximise your gas hob's lifespan, clean spills promptly to prevent carbon build-up around burners. Keep flame ports clear using a fine wire brush weekly, and remove and soak pan supports in hot soapy water for deep cleaning. Balance your cooking across all burners during service for efficiency, and position pans centrally over flames to improve heat transfer. Consider using a heat diffuser for delicate sauces that need ultra-low, gentle heat.
