Hestan Rangetop

Yes, this unit is designed specifically for natural gas. You will need a professional installer to ensure your existing gas line meets the required pressure and capacity specifications for a high-output professional rangetop.

The integrated griddle is built directly into the rangetop, meaning it benefits from the unit's dedicated heat source for consistent, even temperature distribution across the entire surface. It is significantly more stable and offers more cooking area than a standard stovetop griddle pan.

Like most professional-grade stainless steel appliances, it requires regular maintenance to prevent spotting. Using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner and wiping with the grain will keep the finish looking new and prevent buildup from daily cooking.

While the grates are durable enough to handle high heat, we recommend hand-washing them with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Dishwashers can strip the seasoning from cast iron and may cause premature rusting or finish degradation.

Yes, the burner controls are engineered for precision, allowing you to dial down the heat for gentle simmering. This level of control is essential for delicate tasks like melting chocolate or reducing sauces without scorching.
