The PLSR GE dual fuel ranges pair the responsive flame control of a professional gas cooktop with the consistent, even heat of an electric convection oven — giving you the best of both fuel types in a single range. Gas burners reaching up to 20,000 BTU handle searing, sautéing, and rapid boiling with precision. The electric oven delivers dry, steady heat that bakers depend on for consistent results across every rack. Available in 30", 36", and 48" widths and finished in stainless steel, matte black, or glossy white, the PLSR GE series is the choice of the cook who refuses to compromise.
| What does "dual fuel" mean? |
Dual fuel means the range uses two fuel sources: gas for the cooktop burners and electricity for the oven. This gives you the responsive flame control of gas cooking on top with the dry, consistent heat of an electric convection oven below — widely considered the ideal combination for serious cooking and baking. |
| Why would I choose dual fuel over all-gas? |
The primary advantage is oven performance. Electric convection ovens deliver dry, even heat with minimal temperature fluctuation — which produces more consistent results for baking, pastry work, and roasting. Gas ovens produce slightly moister heat, which is preferred for some styles of bread baking and braising. If precision baking matters to you, dual fuel is the better choice. |
| Do dual fuel ranges require special electrical wiring? |
Yes. All PLSR dual fuel (GE) models require a dedicated 240V electrical circuit: 15A for the 30GE, 16A for the 36GE, and 25A for the 48GE. If your kitchen currently runs a gas range on a 120V outlet, you will need a licensed electrician to install the appropriate 240V circuit before installation. |
| Do dual fuel ranges still need a gas line? |
Yes. The cooktop burners on all PLSR dual fuel ranges run on gas (natural gas or propane). You need both a gas line for the cooktop and a 240V electrical connection for the oven. |
| Can I convert a dual fuel range to propane? |
Yes. All PLSR dual fuel models ship configured for natural gas and include an LP conversion kit in the box. The conversion applies to the gas cooktop burners — the electric oven is unaffected. |
| What sizes are available in dual fuel? |
The PLSR dual fuel lineup includes three sizes: 30-inch (4 burners, 3.5 cu. ft. oven), 36-inch (6 burners, 4.5 cu. ft. oven), and 48-inch (8 burners, dual ovens, removable griddle/grill). Each size is available in stainless steel, matte black, and glossy white. |
| Does the 48-inch dual fuel range have two electric ovens? |
Yes. The PLSR 48GE features two independent electric oven cavities: a 4.2 cu. ft. main oven with 3,200W convection and 2,800W broiler, and a 2.5 cu. ft. secondary oven with a dedicated 2,800W tube burner. Both ovens operate independently at different temperatures. |
| What range hood should I pair with a dual fuel range? |
The gas cooktop on dual fuel ranges produces the same heat and combustion byproducts as an all-gas range, so proper ventilation is equally important. We recommend a range hood at least 6 inches wider than your cooktop. Proline Range Hoods offers models designed specifically for 30", 36", and 48" ranges. |
