Why this salamander grill earns its place
Not every kitchen needs three-phase power, and that's exactly why the Giorik Hi Lite SH20 exists. It delivers the same finishing capability and rise-and-fall precision as its larger siblings, but on a single-phase supply — making it ideal for smaller restaurants, caf's, deli counters and prep spaces that don't have heavy-duty electrics installed. The compact footprint doesn't mean compromised performance: it's built to finish plates at pace and handle serious service volumes.
The rise-and-fall mechanism is the real workhorse here. It positions the heating element at the exact distance you need from the food, so you can achieve intense browning and gratinating without the guesswork of a fixed grill. That automated positioning takes the strain off your chefs during a long shift and keeps the plating rhythm consistent, plate after plate. The 2/3 GN cooking surface handles most finishing work — individual plates, small trays, vegetables, fish fillets, all at the speed your service demands.
Heat-yield elements reach temperature in record time, and once they're ready, that radiant heat is intense and focused exactly where it matters. The energy footprint is genuinely impressive: up to 79% energy savings means real cost reduction over months and years of service. Reduced cleaning and maintenance time keeps you out of the tech specs and back to running your kitchen, and less wasted heat means your prep areas and storage stay cooler when it's busy.
