Preparing a Good Foundation
Your barbecue island needs a solid and level foundation. Damage
caused by inadequate or improper foundation support is not covered
by the warranty. It is the responsibility of the owner to provide a proper
foundation for the barbecue island.
If you do not already have a location for your barbecue island, we
recommend you have a concrete slab prepared to accommodate it.
There are several advantages of having a permanent slab, including
stability, levelness, and it eliminates sagging.
As you prepare your slab, this is the best time to run gas, electrical, and
water lines and locate stub-ups for your barbecue island to connect
to. The size and shape of the base of the barbecue island is called a
footprint.
Footprint drawings show the actual dimensions of the base and
suggested locations for your stub-ups. Footprint drawings for each
model can be found in in the Cal Flame Barbecue Island Pre-Delivery
Guide, available from your dealer, the Cal Flame web site, or through
Cal Flame customer service.
Although a permanent slab is recommended, you can place your
barbecue island on a prepared surface with bricks or pavers. We
do not recommend you place your barbecue island on gravel, sand,
timbers, dirt or grass because these surfaces have the potential to
become unstable or uneven. Your barbecue island should always be
on a stable, at, level surface.
You can put your barbecue island on a deck provided it is rated to
support the full weight of your barbecue island, grill, and all accessories.
We recommend you have a contractor or structural engineer examine
your deck to determine whether it can bear the load of your barbecue
island.
Your Cal Flame retailer can help you with your foundation and more.
Your retailer has a wealth of information and experience about how to
get the most out of your barbecue island and can provide you with a
full line of accessories that are designed to complement your barbecue
island and increase your enjoyment.
