Description
The GasMax REB-03E is a heavy-duty natural gas salamander that delivers fast overhead infrared heat for grilling, finishing and au gratin work, built for busy restaurants, cafes and steak and seafood kitchens. Three ceramic infrared burners draw 42MJ/h on natural gas across a 630 x 400mm grill area, while an adjustable cast iron cooking surface lets the chef set the gap to the burners for searing or gentle finishing. A welded stainless steel body and cast iron components stand up to continuous high-temperature service.

Venue suitability
The REB-03E suits medium-to-large restaurants, steakhouses, seafood kitchens, hotels and gastro-pubs that need a dedicated finishing and grilling station alongside the main cookline. The adjustable cast iron surface makes it a strong choice where one unit has to switch between hard searing and gentle au gratin or cheese-melting work. It is less suited to small cafes with no natural gas connection, since this model runs on natural gas and must be hard-piped by a licensed gas fitter.

Frequently asked questions
What gas does the GasMax REB-03E use?
The REB-03E runs on natural gas, drawing 42MJ/h across three ceramic infrared burners through a 3/4" regulator. It must be connected and commissioned by a licensed gas fitter.
How big is the grilling area?
The grill area measures 630 x 400mm, set within a 680 x 410 x 395mm cavity. The overall unit is 914mm wide, 522mm deep and 580mm high, so allow bench space accordingly.
Can I adjust the cooking height?
Yes. The cast iron cooking surface is adjustable, so you can move the grill closer to the burners for a hard sear or further away for gentle finishing, melting and au gratin work.
What safety features does it have?
The salamander has auto ignition with a pilot light for reliable lighting, plus flame failure shut-off that automatically cuts the gas supply if a burner goes out during service.
What warranty comes with the REB-03E?
It carries 2 years parts and labour plus a further 2 years parts only, provided you register the product within 14 days of invoice.
What else do I need to plan for installation?
Because it is hard-piped to natural gas, factor a licensed gas fitter and adequate clearance into your kitchen layout. Our guide to setting up a commercial kitchen covers planning the cookline around equipment like this.
Where does a salamander fit in a commercial kitchen?
A salamander is an overhead grill used for finishing, browning, melting and toasting rather than primary cooking. See our essential commercial kitchen equipment list for how it complements ranges, ovens and fryers.
