Bertazzoni Professional Series
Bertazzoni Professional Series 36 Inch 5 Burner Front Control Gas Cooktop
The Bertazzoni Professional Series 36 Inch 5 Burner Front Control Gas Cooktop combines Italian craftsmanship, professional gas cooking performance, and a sleek low-profile design for luxury kitchen installations.
Quick Product Summary
This 36-inch Bertazzoni front-control gas cooktop features five gas burners, including a 17,000 BTU power burner, a 10,400 BTU rapid burner, two 6,000 BTU medium burners, and a 3,750 BTU simmer burner. It includes cast iron grates, thermocouple flame-failure protection, a simmer ring, and an LPG conversion kit.
Professional Gas Cooking Performance with Elegant Italian Design
The Bertazzoni Professional Series 36 Inch 5 Burner Front Control Gas Cooktop brings precision flame control, professional-style performance, and refined Italian design to the center of your kitchen. Its front-mounted metal knobs offer convenient control access, while the stainless steel pressed worktop delivers a clean built-in look.
Designed to sit almost flush with surrounding countertops and cabinetry, this cooktop creates a seamless luxury appearance and is especially well suited for installation above a Bertazzoni wall oven. The five-burner layout gives home chefs the flexibility to boil pasta, sear meat, stir-fry with a wok, warm sauces, and gently melt delicate ingredients.
Cleanup is simplified by the seamless one-piece worktop with Bertazzoni’s signature Carbonio finish, reducing gaps and joints where food debris can collect. Safety is built in with 100% fail-safe thermocouple technology, which shuts off gas flow if a flame goes out.
