Product Description

Overview

The Southbend PR36-48 Platinum Backguard/Flue Riser is a commercial-grade stainless steel accessory designed to mount behind cooking equipment to protect walls, extend the flue, and provide a finished look for your kitchen buildout. At 36" high by 48" wide, this model is tailored to fit a wide range of Southbend and other commercial ranges. For new restaurant owners, the PR36-48 is a straightforward, durable choice that reduces on-site modifications and helps accelerate your restaurant opening.

Key Features

  • 36" H x 48" W stainless steel construction — provides a corrosion-resistant, easy-to-clean surface that stands up to daily foodservice wear.
  • Platinum finish with stainless steel front & sides — creates a professional, cohesive appearance behind ranges and cooking lines.
  • Backguard and flue riser design — protects walls from heat, grease, and splatter while directing exhaust and simplifying hood alignment.
  • No shelves (open design) — keeps installation simple and avoids interfering with overhead ventilation requirements.
  • Commercial-grade durability — built to match the rigors of a busy kitchen and reduce replacement frequency.
  • Reduced on-site fabrication — pre-sized dimensions help cut installation time and lower contractor costs during your kitchen buildout.
  • Compatible with multiple range models — versatile sizing that integrates with many Southbend and other manufacturers’ cooking equipment.
