When it comes to grilling in a commercial kitchen, the choice of equipment directly affects food quality, operating costs, and even kitchen safety. Traditional open-flame grills are common, but they often produce flare-ups, uneven cooking, and heavy smoke.

Enter the Petros Gas Vapor Water Grill — a piece of professional equipment that brings healthier cooking, easier cleaning, and consistent results to restaurants, caterers, and food trucks.

Here’s why chefs and restaurant owners across North America are making the switch.

What Is a Gas Vapor Water Grill?

A gas vapor water grill is a commercial-grade grill with a built-in water tray located under the cooking surface. This unique design delivers several key benefits:

• Moisture-Rich Cooking Environment – Prevents meat from drying out.

• Smoke Control – Reduces smoke production by trapping drippings in water.

• No Flare-Ups – Eliminates dangerous grease fires that are common on open grills.

• Easy Cleaning – Water tray catches grease and food debris for fast cleanup.

Petros takes this proven design and perfects it with high-quality Canadian manufacturing and Greek engineering expertise.

Made in Canada, Designed for Durability

Petros Gas Vapor Water Grills are built with:

• Heavy-Gauge Stainless Steel – Rust-proof, heat-resistant, and easy to sanitize.

• Reinforced Frame – Handles heavy commercial use without warping.

• Precision-Built Burners – Even heat distribution across the entire grill surface.

Because they’re made in Canada, Petros grills are CSA/ETL certified — ensuring they meet North American safety and performance standards.

Superior Cooking Performance

With a Petros Gas Vapor Water Grill, you can expect:

• Even Heat Distribution – Perfect searing from edge to edge.

• Juicy, Tender Meats – Water vapor keeps food moist and flavorful.

• Healthier Cooking – Excess fat drips away into the water tray instead of burning back onto the food.

• Multi-Zone Control – Adjustable burners let you create multiple temperature zones for different menu items.

This means you can grill steaks, chicken, burgers, seafood, or vegetables simultaneously — with consistent results every time.

Easy Cleaning & Low Maintenance

Commercial kitchens need equipment that cleans up quickly. Petros water grills are designed for efficiency:

• Removable Water Pans – Easily empty and refill during service.

• Smooth, Open Design – Minimal crevices where grease can accumulate.

• Grease Collection System – Reduces smoke buildup and keeps the kitchen cleaner.

Less time scrubbing means more time focusing on customers.

Safety & Efficiency

Traditional grills can cause flare-ups and uneven flames, which are safety hazards in a busy kitchen. Petros eliminates these problems:

• No Flare-Ups – Drippings are instantly cooled by the water tray.

• Reduced Smoke – Makes your kitchen environment safer and more comfortable.

• Lower Operating Costs – Efficient burners use less gas than many open-flame grills.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Petros Gas Vapor Water Grill

Before you invest in a Petros grill, here are a few factors to consider so you get the perfect fit for your kitchen:

1. Size & Cooking Capacity

• Small/Compact Models – Best for food trucks, small restaurants, or kitchens with limited space.

• Medium to Large Models – Ideal for restaurants with high customer traffic or catering operations that serve large groups.

Tip: Estimate your peak-hour grilling volume (burgers, steaks, kebabs per hour) to avoid buying a grill that’s too small.

2. Number of Burners

• More burners = more control.

• Go for a multi-burner model if you plan to cook different foods at once (e.g., burgers on one side, vegetables on the other).

3. Portability

• If you cater events or operate a food truck, consider a mobile unit with casters for easy movement and setup.

4. Budget & ROI

• Petros grills are built to last 7–10+ years with proper maintenance.

• Look at long-term savings (less gas usage, less cleaning time, fewer flare-up incidents) rather than just upfront cost.

5. Compliance Requirements

• Make sure your local regulations require CSA or ETL certification — Petros meets both, which can save you headaches during inspections.
