When you really have to crank out the orders, this high-production 40 - 50 Lb. commercial stainless steel floor fryer is the way to go. Part of Pitco’s Solstice series, the SG14 has a patented tube-type atmospheric burner and baffle design that gets into radiant mode faster for faster cooking and recovery times and increased production. The 110,000 BTU/hr. burner draws more air for improved air-gas mixture, and the baffle design causes a scrubbing action of the flame, squeezing more heat out and self-cleaning the burner.

The commercial deep fryer, propane or natural gas, has a peened stainless steel tank that’s warrantied for 10 years, and stainless steel front, door and sides. The tank has a cool zone and a specially designed tube rack that allows food crumbs and debris to fall more easily into the zone. A heavy duty 3/16” bottom door hinge is more durable, standing up to more use and abuse, and all components can be serviced from the front. An integrated flue deflector sends waste heat up toward the exhaust hood. A high-limit safety switch shuts off the fryer if the oil temperature exceeds the limit, and a pilot light safety valve shuts off gas flow if the pilot light goes out.

The 1-1/4” full port drain valve makes filtering and changing oil easy, and the fryer comes with a stainless drain clean-out rod and drain extension. The restaurant gas or propane deep fryer with thermostat comes with a choice of two twin baskets or one full-size basket, and the fryer’s basket hanger can be removed for cleaning without tools. The Pitco Solstice SG14 stands on 9” adjustable legs to allow more room for floor cleaning.
