How To Choose

Your restaurant already has gas infrastructure and your local code supports the setup.
Choose electric when
The site has stronger electrical infrastructure or specific indoor utility planning requirements.

Which Configuration Fits a Hotel?

COOKERYAKI supports both gas and electric heating. Where adequate electrical capacity is available, a premium indoor hotel project may prefer electric heating because it can simplify on-site gas infrastructure management and reduce gas-related installation coordination. This is not a universal efficiency or cost claim: utility capacity, menu, local rates, ventilation and code still determine the right choice.

Cookeryaki Recommendation

Send Cookeryaki your floor plan, seating count, country, expected table shape, and available utilities. The equipment configuration should be selected around the project, not only around a generic product model.
