More grilling – less gas
Active Food Systems has released results from new tests that show that the Synergy 900 Grill consumes a staggering 52% less gas than conventional grills – over 12% less than originally thought. A figure which, with today’s ever escalating gas prices, can’t be ignored by operators looking to cut costs and up their green credentials.
The Synergy 900 Grill combines a new energy-saving gas burner system, that operates at a very hot temperature, with a special ceramic base design that focuses heat on the food being cooked. Together these features ensure that the grill heats up quicker, reaching temperature in as little as 10 minutes, and cooks faster and more thoroughly.
“We are delighted with these new energy saving figures, especially with more gas price rises on the horizon,” says Justin Cadbury of Active Food Systems. “They confirm that no other gas grill technology offers the same combination of energy saving and performance as the Synergy 900.”
The Synergy 900 is rated at just 11.4kW/h, compared to the 22.2 to 35 kW/h typical of conventional grills. Consequently the Synergy 900 will, on average, save around £200 per month in gas bills, with no compromise on performance. It equates to savings of around £11,441 over five years, assuming 10 hours use a day.
The higher temperature burn atomises the juices that normally drip out of grilled food so there’s no need for a fat tray. From an operator point of view, this means not only better quality food, as the juices effectively coat the grilled food enhancing flavour, but also safer, easier cleaning. Richard Kennedy of The Horseshoe Inn, Offord D’Arcy simply hoovers out the ash residue from his Synergy 900 every morning.
The Synergy 900 has a 900 x 640mm cooking surface and two independent gas burners. It can cook 84 x 8oz sirloin steaks per hour.
