Questions buyers ask
What gas hookup does it need?
A 3/4" NPT gas line through the included regulator. Ships set up for natural gas; the regulator is factory set to 4" W.C. The regulator takes at most 1/2 PSI (14" W.C.); higher line pressure needs a step-down regulator first. Rated input is 38,000 BTU/H.
Does it need electricity?
Yes, a grounded 120V, 60 Hz outlet for the spit motors and the light; the unit has a three-prong grounding plug.
Does it need a hood?
Yes. Southwood says to run it under an exhaust hood that extends at least 6" past its sides, with at least 4 feet from the top of the unit to the filters, and to use licensed gas, electrical and HVAC installers.
Will it fit?
44.5" wide (49.5" with the 5" spit handles), 22.2" deep and 60" high (54" plus 6" Legs). Install it next to non-combustible surfaces only, 6" from other equipment.
How many chickens does it cook?
16-20 chickens on 4 spits, each spit with 2 single and 3 double skewers; Southwood quotes about 50 minutes for a 3.5 lb. chicken.
Does it need a stand?
Southwood lists the equipment stand as optional (sold separately) for the RG4. Our photos show it on a stand.
What does the warranty cover?
USR Brands covers Southwood rotisserie ovens for 1 year parts and labor from delivery, in the contiguous US. Food truck and farm installs are parts only, glass is not covered, and gas connections must be made by a qualified installer.
Can it ship to California or other western states?
The Southwood warranty states that USR Brands cannot ship to or guarantee its products in CA, OR, WA, MT, WY or UT. Call us before ordering for one of those states.
