Alfresco Versa Burner Key Considerations

A power burner is a great addition to any outdoor kitchen, giving outdoor cooking versatility at the highest level. Before installing your power burner, it is best to consider a few different things. Firstly installation, the Alfresco Power Burner, spans 24-inches wide, which can take up a considerable amount of countertop space in a smaller outdoor cooking set up. With that said, measure your countertop and determine if your outdoor kitchen design leaves you with enough countertop space for prepping, cooking, serving, and entertaining. 

Another key consideration is determining the height of your countertop before installation. the question you need to ask is what type of cooking do you intend to use this power burner for? for example, if you plan on really utilizing the wok feature for stir-fry, it is best to install this built-in power burner at your standard 34 inch countertop height. What if you are planning on using big pots and pans for your larger get-togethers? In this case, it is worth considering having your power burner installed into a plunge style outdoor cabinet. This design incorporates an ergonomically positioned lower power burner, ensuring comfortable and convenient cooking with larger pots and pans.
