Built In Bbq Against House

A possible recipe for disaster.

Built in bbq against house. The grill must be kept a safe distance from the walls of the house. Hestan 110000 btu 42 inch wide natural gas built in grill with trellis burner system infrared sear burners and rotisserie from the aspire by hestan series. The frame consists of three small manageable boxes that are built separately and then screwed together to make one long island. Over the years i have seen two different outcomes with my neighbors.

The barbecue grill can burn down a home. The heat that radiates from the grill can buckle your siding or even start a fire. I d like to hear how far away from the house wall your grill is. A grill fire endangers the wood walls of a house regardless of how far away it is placed if grass or trees are ignited.

As a code guy i should point out that the irc has a few things to say about kitchens and it doesn t care if the kitchen is inside or outside the house. I m planning to build a built in kitchen area with propane for the grill on our patio against one of the brick walls of our home. One 24 inch high 37 inch wide box in the center to support the grill and the shelf it sits on plus one 36 inch high 48 inch wide box on either side with cabinets set into each. I d like to put this grill as close to the house as possible but i have vinyl siding at this particular location.

It is not an enclosed space. For built in kitchens with a peninsula or for grill islands add a breakfast bar style overhang that s 15 inches deep for a 36 inch high counter or 12 inches for a 42 inch one to allow enough space for knees. The barbecue pit uses charcoal briquettes or you can have a gas grill insert installed in a barbecue pit custom built to its specifications. The recommended distance of a barbecue grill from a house keeps this open flame source at a safe distance and prevents the fire from catching onto a flammable part of the house.

Provide task lighting such as a clip on grill light or a standing lamp for cooking and work areas. So i m curious if anyo. The vents are not in the back of the grill but semi on the top angle piece. Make a three prong lighting plan.

I have been told by one contractor that because it is against the house it will require a vent hood but several other contractors have said a vent hood is not required because it is. Barbecue grills shoved into a corner of the deck have evolved into full blown outdoor kitchens.
