Choosing the Best Commercial Range For Your Restaurant

Choosing the best commercial range for your restaurant doesn’t have to be a difficult task. When shopping for a restaurant range, you’ll want to consider a few things. The first is whether you need a heavy duty range or a medium duty range. Most restaurants and chains use medium duty ranges, but places like hotels, schools, hospitals and high volume restaurants use heavy duty units to get the job done. Something else to consider is Short Order has a variety of ranges with open burners and griddle tops, and you can always contact a Short Order associate to help decide which commercial range is right for your restaurant, hotel or place of business.
