Product Description

This 30" gas cooktop includes Downdraft, an integrated ventilation system that doesn't require a separate hood. The cooktop features a 17K BTU professional burner to achieve both high heat needed for searing and low simmer settings. The 5K BTU Even-Heat™ Simmer Burner enables precise simmering and melting while the 300 CFM exhaust rating means the venting can handle it all.

Features

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.
Stainless Steel Knobs : Enhance the look of the cooktop surface with sturdy construction that adds to their premium feel.
Full-Width Cast-Iron Grates : Enhance the beautiful look of the cooktop and allow easy movement of cookware around the entire cooking surface.
LP Conversion Kit : Allows you to convert the cooktop so it can be used with LP gas.
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.
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.
3-Speed Fan Control : Can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air.
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.
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.
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.
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.
