Description
A 25-1/2" infrared charbroiler that lights without pilots and cuts flare-ups.
The Vulcan VTEC25 is a 25-1/2" VTEC Series countertop charbroiler with Vulcan's IRX infrared burner system. 2 burner zones at 22,000 BTU/hr each give 44,000 BTU/hr under 11" x 25" stainless steel grids. A rotary piezo igniter lights each burner, so there are no standing pilots and no power cord.

IRX infrared burners
Each 12" zone has a 22,000 BTU/hr patented infrared burner; Vulcan says IRX uses half the gas of a traditional charbroiler.
Fewer flare-ups
The steel emitter panel blocks convective air, which Vulcan says cuts flare-ups and keeps product from drying out.
Piezo ignition
A rotary piezo igniter lights each burner directly: no standing pilots and no power cord.
Stainless cooking grids
11" x 25" stainless steel grids give about 2 sq. ft. per burner zone, 22" x 25.25" in total.
Easy cleanup
A full width stainless front crumb tray and a removable heat shield and splash guard pull off for cleaning.
