Delivery and setup
- Ships by freight carrier; the shipping cost depends on your location. See our shipping policy for details.
- Call (201) 467-8222 for the current lead time before you schedule installation.
- Choose natural gas or LP when you order. If your kitchen is above 2,000 feet, tell us the elevation so Royal can set the unit up for it.
- A qualified gas installer must connect it with a manual shut-off valve following local codes; no external regulator is needed. On casters, Royal calls for a quick-disconnect flexible connector and a restraining device.
- Boil out the new tank before the first fill.
- Inspect the shipment before signing and note any visible damage on the freight bill.
Questions buyers ask
How much oil does it hold?
The stainless steel tank holds 75 lbs. of oil; frying area is 18" x 18".
Does it need electricity?
No. It uses a millivolt control system with a standing pilot and 100% safety shut-off, so it runs on gas alone.
What gas connection does it need?
A 3/4" NPT connection at the left rear with a manual shut-off valve. Manifold pressure is 4" W.C. for natural gas and 11" W.C. for propane, and no external pressure regulator is required.
Does it have a built-in filter?
No. Filter it with Royal's RPF-50 portable filter, or look at the RFT battery models with a built-in filter.
How much clearance does it need?
6" at the rear and sides from combustible walls and 0" from non-combustible walls.
What does the warranty cover?
Royal covers this fryer for 1 year parts and labor from installation (up to 18 months from manufacture), and the stainless steel tank for 5 years prorated. Labor is covered when an authorized Royal service agency does the work.
How do I clean it?
Filter the oil at the end of each day and wash the baskets and loose parts. Once a week, drain the tank, boil out with a boil-out solution, scrub, rinse and dry before refilling.
