Wolf 30" range — the entry size for Wolf's range lineup. Fits most renovated NYC apartment kitchens where a 36" or 48" wouldn't. Same Wolf quality, smaller footprint. Available in DF304 (dual fuel) and GR304 (all-gas) variants.
Wolf 30" range variants
- DF304 — 30" Dual Fuel (gas burners + electric oven)
- GR304 — 30" all-gas range
- DF304SE — Sealed-burner 30" DF (newer generation)
Why 30" is common in NYC
Most pre-war NYC apartments and many Brooklyn brownstones have kitchens designed for 30" ranges. A 30" Wolf gives you the same flame control, the same oven quality, the same red-knob aesthetic — fitting where a 36" or 48" won't. We service Wolf 30" ranges constantly in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

30" vs 36" — different parts
Note: many parts (burner caps, knobs, igniters) are shared between 30" and 36" Wolf ranges. But oven elements, doors, and certain trim pieces are model-specific. We bring the right parts for your specific unit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a Wolf 30" range good enough for serious cooking?
Yes. The DF304 puts out 18,000-20,000 BTU per burner — same heat output as the 36"/48" units. The oven is smaller (only fits up to half-sheet pans), but the heat quality and control are identical.
Can I upgrade my Wolf 30" to a 36" later?
Possibly, but you'd need to verify the cabinet width and gas/electrical supply will accommodate. We can advise during a service visit, but actual installation work is for your contractor.
My Wolf 30" oven shows F1 error — what does it mean?
F1 is typically a temperature sensor fault on Wolf DF ranges. We diagnose and replace the sensor on-site, with a flat quote on-site.
