Karori pizza shop oven swap over by CES Wellington

The job

A Karori pizza shop needed its old conveyor ovens replaced. We removed a Lincoln conveyor oven and two old Blodgett conveyor ovens. One of the Blodgett ovens was placed at the front of the shop, because the customer had already sold it.

The two new XLT X3H-3240 natural gas conveyor ovens were supplied by JLLennard, who also arranged removal and disposal of the old ovens that were leaving the site. We installed them as a double stack on a frame. Work took place from 9 to 11 November 2026.

What we did

The swap covered strip-out and moving of the old ovens, positioning the two new XLT units on the frame, and connecting the gas and electrical supplies. A gas soundness test passed, burner pressure was checked on high and low, and the ovens were commissioned. We showed the owner how to adjust the time and temperature, and how to remove the door, nozzles, belt and frame for cleaning, then ran test pizzas.

Every oven install includes an electronic service report. Our work is covered by a 90-day parts and labour warranty. We offer 7-day cover with after-hours emergency cover, same-day response across Greater Wellington (extra or out-of-hours charges may apply). We aim to respond to emergencies within 2 hours, depending on workload. This is a target, not a guarantee.

The result

The new double stack was installed, tested and commissioned, and the store was shown how to set and clean the ovens.
