Product Performance and Usage

How long does it take to preheat the oven?

Peerless ovens typically take 15-20 minutes to preheat, depending on the model and the desired cooking temperature.

Can I cook multiple pizzas at once?

Yes, many Peerless ovens have multiple decks, allowing you to cook several pizzas at the same time. The exact capacity depends on the model and pizza size.

Is this oven easy to clean?

Yes, Peerless ovens are designed for easy cleaning. They typically feature stainless steel exteriors and interiors, removable deck plates, and crumb trays, making regular maintenance simple.

Does the oven come fully assembled, or will I need to put it together?

Most Peerless ovens come partially assembled. Minor assembly, such as attaching legs or gas/electric connections, may be required. Professional installation is recommended.

How well does the oven retain heat?

Peerless ovens are built with excellent insulation, allowing them to retain heat efficiently. This ensures consistent cooking temperatures and reduces the need for frequent reheating.

Can this oven handle high-volume use?

Yes, Peerless ovens are designed for commercial use and can handle high-volume cooking in busy kitchens. They are ideal for restaurants, pizzerias, and bakeries that require reliable performance.

Does it cook evenly on all decks?

Yes, Peerless ovens are engineered for even heat distribution across all decks, ensuring consistent cooking on each level.

What are the power requirements?

Peerless offers both gas and electric models. Electric models usually require a 220V connection, while gas models need a natural gas or propane hookup. Always check the specific model’s power requirements.

What’s the difference between single-phase and three-phase power?

Single-phase power is commonly used in residential settings and small businesses, offering lower power output suitable for smaller equipment. Three-phase power, more common in commercial and industrial settings, delivers higher power more efficiently and is ideal for running large, high-demand equipment like commercial ovens.

Does a three-phase oven need special installation?

Yes, a 3-phase oven requires specialized installation. This includes a 3-phase circuit breaker panel, special wiring for three hot wires, and possibly a transformer if 3-phase power is not already available. It’s important to hire a licensed electrician for proper setup and to ensure compliance with local electrical codes.

What voltages are common in commercial kitchens?

Common voltages for commercial kitchen equipment include 120V (for smaller appliances), 208V or 240V (for mid- to high-power appliances), and 480V (for very large, industrial-grade equipment). Peerless ovens typically operate at 208V or 240V, depending on the model.

What’s the maximum temperature the oven can reach?

Peerless ovens generally reach a maximum temperature of about 650°F (343°C), making them suitable for high-temperature cooking, including pizza and other baked goods.

Does this oven need special ventilation?

Yes, most commercial ovens, especially gas models, require proper ventilation to ensure safety and meet health regulations. Electric ovens may also need ventilation depending on the local building codes. Always consult a professional to assess your ventilation needs.

How long does delivery usually take?

Delivery times vary depending on the model and your location, but typically, it takes 1-2 weeks for a Peerless oven to be delivered. We recommend checking with your dealer or supplier for a more accurate estimate.

What kind of warranty or customer support does Peerless offer?

Peerless provides a limited warranty, usually covering parts and labor for up to 1 year. The warranty specifics vary by model, so it’s best to review the details for your specific oven. Peerless also offers customer support through authorized dealers and service centers.
