Wok Ranges

28 products

Wok ranges are high-output ranges, mostly gas, built around round wok openings, designed for the intense, concentrated heat that stir-frying needs. Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and pan-Asian restaurants use them, along with any kitchen cooking wok dishes at volume. They are sold by the number of wok stations, and many include a swing faucet and a drain trough so the cook can rinse the wok between orders without leaving the station.

About commercial wok ranges

Before you buy

  1. Match the wok ring or opening to the woks your cooks use, since a wok that sits too high or too low in the ring loses heat and control.
  2. Confirm whether the range is water-cooled, which needs a water line and a drain, or a waterless design that cools the top with air instead.
  3. Ask for the burner type and gas input of each station and give the total to your gas fitter, because a wok burner draws much more gas than a standard open burner.
  4. Check whether the model offers knee-operated gas controls, which let the cook adjust the flame without taking a hand off the wok.

Common questions

Why not just use a regular range burner for a wok?

A standard burner spreads its flame under a flat pan, while a wok range concentrates much higher output into a ring that cradles a round-bottomed wok. That heat lets food sear and stay crisp while it is tossed. A flat-bottomed wok on a regular burner works for light use, but not for a busy wok station.

What utilities does a wok range need?

A gas supply sized for its high input, a place under the exhaust hood and, on water-cooled or rinse-equipped models, a cold water line and a drain. Check the manufacturer's specification sheet for the exact connections and confirm them with your gas fitter and plumber before delivery.
