How Thor Hob Parts & Spares Work
Thor commercial hob components are engineered for seamless integration with your existing equipment. When your hob needs attention, it's typically down to specific parts—burners that control flame distribution, thermocouples that monitor temperature, valves regulating gas flow, or control knobs handling daily wear and tear. Each component plays a vital role in your hob's performance, from the precision-engineered gas jets that determine flame size to the robust cast iron pan supports designed to handle heavy cookware. Replacing just the faulty part rather than the entire unit saves you time, money, and kitchen disruption—keeping service flowing without missing a beat!
