{"product_id":"po19","title":"Comstock-Castle PO19 Gas Pizza Oven","description":"\u003ch2\u003eComstock-Castle PO19 Countertop Gas Double-Deck Pizza Oven (24\" Wide, Two 19.5\" x 21\" Hearth Decks, 30,000 BTU)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Comstock-Castle PO19 is a countertop gas double-deck pizza oven with two 19.5-inch by 21-inch hearth decks stacked in a single 24-inch wide cabinet. Cast-iron H-pattern burners combined with a V-shaped baffle direct heat across the deck for even browning. Each deck is rated to 650 degrees Fahrenheit with a thermostat, 100 percent safety shut-off, automatic standing pilot, and brass burner valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDouble-wall stainless steel exterior with aluminized inner framing and porcelain and aluminized linings retain heat and resist corrosion. The unit is stackable in the field with the required 6-inch leg base, so an operator who outgrows two decks can add a second PO19 stacked on top for four decks of capacity. Hearth decks bake directly with cornmeal, in pans, or on screens. Bake times run 7 to 15 minutes depending on crust and toppings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe PO19 is built for small pizzerias, sandwich shops adding pizza, sports bars, ghost kitchens, country clubs, taprooms, bakeries doing flatbread and focaccia, and operations that have gas service and a hood but limited floor space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBest Use Cases\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall pizzeria producing 15 to 25 pies per service hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSandwich shop adding pizza to the menu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSports bar or tap room food program\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry club halfway house or banquet pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhost kitchen pizza station with gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHotel late-night menu or banquet finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBakery flatbread and focaccia production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchool or institutional food service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePizza by the slice or pop-up shop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItalian restaurant secondary deck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo Hearth Decks Per Oven\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach deck measures 19.5 inches wide by 21 inches deep, sized for one 16-inch pizza, two personal pies, or several pans and screens. Stacked vertically in a single cabinet, the two decks give the operator twice the throughput in the same footprint as a single-deck oven. Decks are interchangeable with wire racks for sub finishing, par-baking, and rack-based work, and 3 rack positions per deck with 2.75 inches between positions allow flexible loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCast-Iron H-Pattern Burners\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe H-pattern cast-iron burner is paired with a V-shaped baffle that spreads heat across the entire deck rather than concentrating it under the burner. This eliminates hot spots and produces even browning across the pie. Cast iron lasts longer than stamped steel burners in a high-temperature pizza environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e650 Degree Thermostat With Safety Shut-Off\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach deck has its own thermostat rated to 650 degrees Fahrenheit. A 100 percent safety shut-off cuts the gas if the pilot fails, the automatic standing pilot eliminates manual lighting, and brass burner valves provide long-life flow control. Pressure regulators are factory-set for the gas type ordered (natural or propane), with 4 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePorcelain and Aluminized Linings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior is lined with porcelain and aluminized panels. Porcelain wipes clean and reflects heat back onto the product. Aluminized framing resists corrosion from acidic tomato sauce splatter and aggressive cleaners. Combined with double-wall construction and heavy insulation, the linings keep operating costs down and exterior temperatures cooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStackable In The Field\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo PO19 ovens can be stacked using a 6-inch leg base (sold separately or ordered factory-stacked). This lets an operator start with one oven and add capacity later as demand grows, without replacing the original unit. Factory-stacked orders ship with the leg base included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparison to the PO26\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PO26 is the same oven in a wider 31-inch cabinet with two 26.5-inch by 21-inch decks. Choose the PO19 if your menu tops out at 16-inch pies and you have tight counter space. Choose the PO26 if you need to bake 18 to 22 inch pies or multiple pies per deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparison to the PO31\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PO31 is the largest in the series, a 36-inch cabinet with two 31.5-inch by 21-inch decks. Choose the PO31 for full-size pizzeria operations baking 24 to 28 inch pies, or multiple 16-inch pies per deck for production throughput.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePO19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComstock-Castle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountertop gas double-deck pizza oven\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCabinet Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCabinet Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.5 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber of Decks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeck Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.5\"W x 21\"D each\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterior Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 inches per deck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast-iron H-pattern with V-shaped baffle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBTU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30,000 BTU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e650 degrees Fahrenheit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThermostat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6500 thermostat with 100% safety shut-off\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePilot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic standing pilot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurner Valves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGas Connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4 inch NPT manifold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGas Pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\" WC natural \/ 10\" WC propane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLinings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePorcelain and aluminized\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouble-wall stainless steel exterior, aluminized inner framing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBake Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 to 15 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStackable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes, with 6-inch leg base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 lbs (136 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertifications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNSF, cETLus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PO19 requires a 3\/4 inch NPT gas connection.
