Jasper Single Gas Wok Burner (Chimney Burner) JA-1CB

The Jasper JA-1CB is a single gas wok burner with a chimney burner, available in natural gas or LPG. The chimney burner is the point of difference: it concentrates heat into a tight central column rather than spreading it, which is what gives a wok the fierce base heat that stir-frying depends on. Choose the duckbill version instead if you want even heat across a flat-bottomed pan. It stands 600 x 900 x 1180 mm and weighs 79 kg.

Why operators choose the JA-1CB-N-SM

• Chimney burner - concentrated central heat — the reason to choose this over the duckbill. A chimney burner drives heat up into the base of the wok in a tight column, which is how you get wok hei rather than a gently warmed pan
• Natural gas or LPG, ordered as a variant — select your gas above - the SKU changes with it. Order the wrong one and it will not connect to your supply
• Single burner — a compact addition to a line rather than a bank you have to find 1.2 m of wall for
• 1180 mm working height — standard bench height, so it lines up with the rest of a run
• Water tap over the burner well — standard on this style of wok range for rinsing and topping up between dishes
• Heavy 79 kg build — weight on a wok burner is thermal mass and structure. A light unit flexes and loses heat between dishes
• 600 x 900 mm footprint — narrow enough to place beside existing equipment, deep enough to take a full-size wok

Venue suitability

The JA-1CB suits Asian restaurants, noodle bars and any kitchen adding a single dedicated wok station without rebuilding the line. Choose the chimney burner for wok cooking specifically; if you are cooking in flat-bottomed pans, the duckbill version in the same range spreads heat more evenly.

Installation & delivery

Gas connection must be carried out by a licensed gasfitter — it is a legal requirement in every Australian state and it is what keeps your insurance and the warranty intact. Confirm your gas type before ordering, because natural gas and LPG are separate SKUs on this product rather than a field-convertible setting. Our product data records no MJ/h output figure, so if your gasfitter needs it for supply sizing, ask our team — see the FAQ. At 79 kg it is a two-person placement, and a wok burner of this intensity needs to sit under adequate canopy extraction.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Chimney burner or duckbill - which do I need?

Chimney burners concentrate heat into a tight central column, which is what a round-bottomed wok needs for genuine stir-fry heat. Duckbill burners spread heat more evenly across a wider area, which suits flat-bottomed pans and stockpots. This SKU is the chimney version; we list duckbill wok burners separately in the same Jasper range.

Q: Do I order natural gas or LPG?

Select your gas above - natural gas is JA-1CB-N-SM and LPG is JA-1CB-L-SM-2. They are separate SKUs, not a setting changed on site, so confirm what is at your premises before ordering. If you are unsure, ask your gasfitter or ask us.

Q: What is the gas output in MJ/h?

Our product data does not record it, and we would rather tell you that than publish a figure we cannot stand behind. Contact our team for the output rating if your gasfitter needs it for supply sizing - which they will.

Q: Can I install this myself?

No. Gas connection must be done by a licensed gasfitter in every Australian state. Doing it yourself is illegal, voids the warranty and will almost certainly void your insurance.

Q: Does it need extraction?

Yes. A wok burner at this intensity produces significant heat and combustion products, so it needs to sit under adequate canopy extraction. Factor that into the position before the gasfitter arrives.

Q: What warranty does the JA-1CB-N-SM come with?

No warranty term is recorded against this listing in our product data, so rather than guess we would rather you asked. Contact our team for the current term before you order. Terms vary by product — see our warranty information page for full details.
