Description
Add a compact but powerful broiling station with the Vortex VRX-72-RB 72" Radiant Gas Charbroiler, a commercial countertop radiant gas charbroiler designed for diners, QSR operations, concessions, space-limited kitchens, and restaurants that need strong searing in a manageable footprint. It is built for burgers, steaks, chicken, seafood, vegetables, and other products that rely on consistent radiant heat and defined grill marks. Vortex’s charbroiler platform uses cast iron burners, cast iron cooking grates, stainless construction, and a radiant-style heat system to support even heat across the surface while reducing direct exposure of burners to grease and debris. Key specifications such as a 72-inch width, 33-inch depth, 15-inch height, 6 burner configuration, 156,000 BTU/hr total input, and 120V single-phase electrical requirements make it easier to plan gas service, ventilation, and countertop space. Whether it is being used as a main broiling station or supplemental grill capacity, this model is positioned for reliable output, practical cleaning, and flexible fuel installation.
