ZLINE Gas Cooktops: Rangetop Sizes and Burner Layouts
ZLINE gas cooktops and rangetops range from 30 to 48 inches, with four to eight burners and optional griddles. Compare five models and plan the cutout.
A gas rangetop gives you a professional burner layout without a built-in oven underneath. ZLINE makes a 30-inch gas cooktop and several rangetops from 36 to 48 inches, with or without a griddle.

Cooktop or rangetop?
A cooktop drops into a counter cutout and is only a few inches tall. A rangetop has a deeper, taller body and often a more professional look, which changes the cabinet planning.
In this guide the RCBR30PBT is the cooktop at 3 inches tall. The other four are rangetops that stand 7 9/16 to 7 7/8 inches tall.
Griddles and burners
A reversible cast-iron griddle adds a flat cooking surface. The RTGR36, RT48 and SRT48 include one. The RTS36 and RCBR30PBT do not.
Burner count follows width: four on the 30-inch cooktop, six on the 36-inch models and RT48, and eight on the SRT48.
Plan the installation
Gas cooktops need a gas line and, usually, a range hood sized to the width. Check the cutout dimensions on the product page before you order.
Read about range hood sizing to match a hood to the cooktop.
- Confirm the gas line and the conversion needs.
- Measure the cutout width and depth.
- Plan clearance above the surface for a hood.
- Check the cabinet below for depth and height.
