Essential Buying Considerations

Capacity and Size

  • Consider pizza diameter (30-40cm) and daily output needed.
  • Single deck handles 8-12 pizzas per hour, multi-deck multiplies capacity.

Power Source and Usage

  • Check gas type—natural gas or LPG requires different connections.
  • Verify BTU/kW rating matches your production needs.
  • Consider pizza peels and dough prep equipment for complete setup.

How Commercial Gas Pizza Ovens Work

Ever wondered how these ovens create that perfect pizza in just a couple of minutes? Gas pizza ovens use powerful burners—typically natural gas or LPG—to heat special stone or refractory decks to extremely high temperatures. These decks absorb and radiate intense heat upward into the pizza base while the dome reflects heat downward to cook toppings. Most professional models feature independent top and bottom heat controls, allowing you to fine-tune the cooking environment. The stone base extracts moisture from the dough for a crispy bottom, while the intense ambient heat quickly melts cheese and cooks toppings without drying them out—all in about 2-5 minutes!

Top Tips for Using Commercial Gas Pizza Ovens

For best results, always preheat your oven for at least 30-45 minutes before first service—this fully saturates the stone deck with heat for proper cooking. Rotate pizzas during cooking for even results, and keep the door closed when possible to maintain temperature. Use quality pizza peels for safe loading/unloading, and clean the stone deck regularly using a brush rather than water. Remember that different pizza styles require different temperatures—Neapolitan needs higher heat than American-style, so adjust accordingly.
