Customer questions about this product

My business is at a high elevation; does this change anything when I order gas cooking equipment?

Many gas equipment manufacturers need to make adjustments to the equipment so it operates correctly at elevations over 2,000 feet. Sometimes we can special order from the manufacturer and have your cooking equipment delivered ready-to-go, but in cases where your unit is in stock and waiting to ship, you’ll need to have a qualified service technician come to your location and alter your unit at the time of installation so that it is compatible with a higher elevation. Contact our Special Orders team prior to placing your order, and we will let you know what will work best for the equipment you are planning to purchase.

Vulcan GS40ES LP Details

Increase your production capabilities while saving energy and labor with this Vulcan GS40ES-LP 40 gallon liquid propane stationary kettle! Boasting 135,000 BTU of heating power and a 40 gallon capacity, this kettle allows you to prepare large batches of your signature soups, stews, or pasta. Thanks to the fully jacketed design, this kettle has outstanding heat transfer surface area, so you'll have faster heat-up and cook times, which increases production. Plus, faster cook times mean less energy used, so your utility bills will be lower. A spring assist hinged cover minimizes evaporation to help retain heat, and a drop down lift handle makes it easy to open and close the lid to access the kettle's contents.

This unit features user-friendly thermostatic controls that allow you to warm, simmer, or boil your products. A low water cut-off and pressure limit switch make it as safe to use as it is efficient. The 304 type stainless steel liner is highly stain and corrosion resistant, which makes cleanup much easier. And, to further expedite the cleaning process, the kettle's slopped bottom directs products to a 2" draw off valve with a strainer. Flanged feet ensure superb stability. A liquid propane gas connection and a 120V electrical connection are required.
