Insulated Grill Jackets

We all love making memories with delicious food and beloved friends and family, but safety always comes first. With each outdoor kitchen installation, an early question to ask yourself is: do I need an insulated BBQ jacket? If any combustible materials enter your built-in grill's clearances — as dictated by your owner's manual — then yes, quite often you do need an grill jacket around your grill. But why? Everything from your island materials to local jurisdiction will influence that answer, so we can't provide an absolute answer. Instead, we strongly recommend that you consult your owner's manuals, speak to your contractors (if applicable), and educate yourself on the benefits and problems solved by owning an insulated grill jacket. And when it comes time to install, follow every safety protocol as outline in the manuals supplied with your products. With greater peace of mind, you'll be ready and equipped to safely host your loved ones in no time.
