How we repair your Donut Fryer
A donut fryer is a wide, shallow commercial fryer sized for floating donuts, often with screens, a flipping stick and a lift or drip tray. Every donut fryer has a heat source, a thermostat or computer control, a high-limit safety switch and an oil vat, plus pilot or ignition parts on gas models. A technician checks ignition or elements, thermostat accuracy and the high-limit, and inspects the vat and drain valve for leaks.
Fryers are often the busiest station in a restaurant, so a down fryer is handled as a priority call.

Quick checks you can do safely
