The structure must have vents to allow the gas to escape. This differs from overhead ventilation which may be required depending on the ceiling height of your patio.
Combustible vs. Non-Combustible Enclosures: If your outdoor kitchen includes wood framing, PVC, or composite materials, you must use an insulation liner/jacket to meet manufacturer safety standards and prevent fire hazards. that protect the structure from heat.
A built-in grill is the heart of your outdoor kitchen, its performance and convenience improve greatly when supported by well-chosen complementary components:
Side Burners: Essential for sauce preparation, boiling vegetables, or warming side dishes while your grilling. Bring your indoor stove outdoors with a Side burner. They feature plenty of BTU output for serious cooking power, not just warming.
