valuable information on how to properly install, operate and maintain your new BBQ.
Please read all instructions carefully and plan your installation well ahead of time to

professionals with full knowledge of construction practices and is not recommended
for amateurs or do-it-yourselfers. If you are unsure of any aspect of this installation,

Every BBQ installation is unique because generally, the architectural elements of the

The aim of these plans is to convey known practices that are considered essential for

BBQ Parts
ll our BBQs are hand made pre-cast products. s
such, small imperfections are a known characteristic
including small (hairline) shrinkage cracks that often
appear as the parts dry after casting. These small
cracks are visible on the various pieces specially
near corners, ll pieces are reinforced with pencil
rod inside the casting which will ensure its struc-
tural strength. The assemble parts will be much
stronger than the individual pieces.
Note: small differences can be made up with the
finish materials.
BBQ Assembly
Use Type S masonry mortar to assemble all BBQ
parts except the firebox.
Firebox Assembly
Set firebox pieces using fireproof mortar. Mix mor-
tar as follows:
• 5 Parts fire-clay sand (provided w/ kit)
• 1 Part Portland Cement
Mix using clean water to a peanut butter like consis-
tency.
Do not se add mixes with this mortar.
Distance to comb stibles
If the barbecue is installed in proximity to wood
framed walls, a minimal distance to combustibles
must be maintained. The inner firebox must have a
total distance of no less than 6” to combustibles.
This means that the outer face of all walls of the
barbecue must be 2” to a wood framed wall that is
covered with drywall or 1” to wood framed wall
covered with a cement backer board.
