Restaurant Equipment FAQs

What equipment do I need to open a restaurant in Australia?+
A hot cookline (oven or combi, cooktop, fryer, grill), refrigeration and cold storage, stainless steel prep benches, a commercial dishwasher and an exhaust canopy over the cookline. Build your list zone by zone using the checklist above.
Gas or electric cookline?+
Both are available. Gas equipment must be installed by a licensed gasfitter to AS/NZS 5601. Note some councils, such as the City of Sydney, require new large commercial kitchens to be all-electric from 2026.
Do I need an exhaust canopy?+
Yes, commercial cooking requires mechanical ventilation. Canopy size and make-up air depend on your cookline; check your council and AS 1668.2.
