Today was the Park Slope Brooklyn House Tour. In one of the homes the woman
had custom mounted a Garland H280 Series Infra-Red Salamander Broiler above
her 36" Garland range. Now, because of the custom work needed, I'm assuming
that this was a home pro-style range, and not one for a restaurant. She
liked this model salamander as you can only fire up one side, which was all
she needs. Now this is the first time I've seen a salamander in a home. I
gather one would use it just like any other broiler, just that it gets
hotter? Or just what would one use such for?

You can use them for keeping food warm, too.

IME, salamanders can achieve temperatures much hotter than a typical broiler.
They are particularly useful for quickly browning and/or crisping the tops of
foods.
