Easy Cleaning and Maintenance

With many public barbecues being cleaned hundreds of times per year, minutes saved during each clean quickly add-up and represent significant savings.
Furphy Barbecues are designed with innovative features that ensure quick-and-easy cleaning.

With no exterior entrapment points, ventilation holes or buttons around the hot plate, high pressure water cleaning
can be used with minimal fuss and without fear of damaging internal electronics.*

The frame of the barbecue is designed to ensure no entrapment ledges or points where water, grease or other debris can
lodge. No build up means less chance of bacteria and less need for cleaning.

The industry-leading heating up times of the Furphy hotplates also quickens cleaning time for cleaners who rely on
heating to clean the plate. The unique “waste bag” provides the fastest and most cost-effective method of removing
residual cooking waste on the market.

The days of cleaners scraping out internal waste are over. Cleaners can now save significant time and cost by simply
removing the heat resistant waste bags, ensuring they can clean more barbecues per hour, particularly in peak periods.

Cooking Performance

The hallmark of the patented Intuitive Cooking Control used in Furphy Barbecues is simplicity of use for maximum performance. The single button, one press  button initializes the auto-sterilization of the cook top,  as the heat increases to 230˚C in quick smart time.
Auto shut-off after 30 minutes (with an option of onepress shutoff) ensures energy efficiency. Where crowds gather, and the amount of food needed to be cooked increases, consistency of heat across the  plate becomes critical. Users want to cook steaks, not stew them!
Furphy’s patented Intuitive Cooking Control, using digital technology, monitors plate temperature more  quickly than commonly used mechanical thermostats,  and adjusts accordingly, giving a more consistent temperature across the plate all the way to the edges.
Thanks to combining this technology and a 444-grade stainless steel hot plate – no more lukewarm cooking. The Intuitive Cooking Control as tested by independent authority accredited by NATA  (National Association of Testing Authorities Australia) has among the fastest heat-up times and temperature consistency on the market.

FAQ

What is the length of the electrical cord which comes standard with the Furphy Barbecue?

The length of the cord is 1.5 metres, and comes with a three-point plug.

When installing a Furphy Barbecue with two hot plates, do I need to provide two separate single power points or is a double power point sufficient?
Due to the power requirements of the hotplates, it is recommended that each has its own electrical circuit with a 20-amp breaker (RCM/MCB in the sub board), and a 10-amp weather-proof general power outlet (GPO).
Because there is no internal partition between the two hotplates in a double-plate barbecue, it is recommended to locate the power points in the middle of the barbecue’s housing, to allow for the location of the waste bag assembly unit on each side. Furphy will supply customers with a schema for each model and configuration of barbecue indicating the best location for the conduit with power supply to be in the slab.

How big is the waste bag in Furphy Barbecues, and how often should it be emptied?
The size of the heat resistant bag is 330 x 330 x 480. Once in the waste collection bin, this capacity is reduced to 300 x 250 x 300, giving it a capacity of 22 litres.
However, due to the potential weight, it is recommended to replace the waste bag at 15 litres. For a typical barbecue in a park, this would mean changing the barbecue after around 100 uses. Remember, every Furphy Barbecue comes with 50 extra waste bags, and there is a sticker inside each
barbecue indicate how new bags can be ordered.

After turning off the hotplate, how long does it take to become cool enough to touch?
This will be marginally affected by external factors such as the temperature and rain, but the hotplate is safe to touch 15 minutes after it is turned off.

If left unattended and turned on, how long before the Furphy hotplate automatically turns off?

All Furphy Barbecues feature an auto shut-off after 30 minutes, with the option of a one-press shut-off.

What is the estimated life of the ignition button on the Furphy hotplate, before it needs replacing?
While there is no way of counting how many times an ignition button is pressed, it is estimated that they will last 35,000 uses.

With no ventilation holes around the Furphy Barbecue hotplate, where does the heat within the unit escape?
There are ventilation holes located underneath the ledge of the benchtop, on the sides. This configuration, with no ventilation holes around the plate, allows for easy cleaning of the hotplate with a high-pressure water gun if needed.

How many keys come with each Furphy barbecue?
Customers are supplied with two keys for every door on the barbecue – four for double barbecues and two for single.
