BUILT-IN CONSTRUCTION GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
A Weber-Stephen Products Co. insulated sleeve must be used for any built-in installation.
LOCATING YOUR BARBECUE
When determining a suitable location for your barbecue installation, give attention to concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to
traffic paths, and keeping any gas supply lines as short as possible. Never locate the Weber Gas Barbecue in a garage, breezeway,
shed, under an unprotected overhang, or other enclosed area. Locate the barbecue and structure so there is enough room to safely
evacuate the area in case of a fire.
CLEARANCE FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES OR
STRUCTURES
CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES OR
STRUCTURES
Warning: Clearance from the outside walls of the sides and
back of the insulated sleeve must be a minimum of 6 inches
from a non-combustible surface. Measure from the outside
wall of the insulated surface to the non-combustible
surface. Figure 1. Refer to “Install Gas Supply” on page 2
before starting installation.
Warning: Clearance from the outside walls of the sides and
back of the insulated sleeve must be a minimum of 24
inches from a combustible surface. Measure from the
outside wall of the insulated surface to the combustible
surface. Figure 2. Refer to “Install Gas Supply” on page 2
before starting installation.

■ Vents should be on two sides of the structure.
The dimensions shown indicate the location of the gas
line inlet flange in the insulated sleeve. The support
members of the built-in structure must not impede
passage of the gas lines.

■ Location of the vents should be from the center,

■ Locate the vents at both the bottom of the structure

and at the top of the structure.
■ The bottom vents should be as close to ground level
as possible. Make sure the vent area is not blocked
by interior supports of the structure.
Note: Leave an access in the structure for gas supply
and regulator service.
■ We recommend vents with screens.
■ Access doors to the structure are not considered vents.
■ Clean the vents periodically.
ƽDANGER: Failure to follow recommended minimum
venting instructions can cause gas to collect in the
structure in the event of a gas leak. This may result in
a fire or an explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.

Gas line piping
TYPICAL GAS SUPPLY
INSTALLATION
■ If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet,
use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be used
for lengths greater than 50 feet.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE
DONE BY A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL.
■ Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L;
polyethylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall
thickness of .062 inch; or standard weight (schedule
40) steel or wrought iron pipe.
General Specifications for Piping
Note - Contact your local municipality for building
codes regulating outdoor gas barbecue installations.
In absence of Local Codes, you must conform to the
latest edition of ANSI Z223.1.
■ Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains
more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic
feet of gas.
■ This barbecue is designed to operate at 4.5 inches of
water column pressure. Use only the regulator
supplied with the cooking module.
■ Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor,
underground use.
■ Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material
which may corrode the piping, must be protected
against corrosion in an approved manner.
■ A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors,
and be accessible, not in the “built-in” structure. An
additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be
installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible
location near the supply line.
■ Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.
Test connections
CAUTION: If young children are in the area, a locking
valve should be considered.
All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for
leaks in accordance with local codes and all listed
procedures in the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1.
■ Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to the
action of natural gas when gas connections are made.
DANGER
■ The gas connections must be firmly attached to rigid,
permanent construction.
Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
flames in the area while you check for gas
leaks. This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or death,
and damage to property.
The information provided in this manual is general for
typical installations. We cannot cover all possible
installation ideas. We recommend prior to installation
that you contact your municipality for local building
codes and your local fire department for installation
verification.You can also call Weber-Stephen
Products Co. at 1-888-33SUMMIT (1-888-337-8664) and
we will try and answer any questions you may have.

WT
Weight (expressed in pounds) represents the total weight
of the sleeve and the cooking unit and does not include
the permanent structure housing the sleeve.
The sleeve must be supported from the bottom.
Recommended cutout dimensions “A through C” include a
nominal clearance dimension to facilitate installation. Any
additional clearance must be within tolerances shown or fit-
up of sleeve and built-in structure may be adversely affected.
Countertop
Specified sleeve dimensions “A through C” reflect the
dimension to the mounting surface of the trim excluding
the overhang.
WARNING: Air holes must be provided in the structure
at the top and bottom to provide ventilation in the event
of a gas leak.
Air holes can be located in a low visibility area and should
be protected by screening material to prevent rodents and
insects from entering the structure. Air holes will also help
dry moisture.
If you are going to use a rotisserie with the cooking module,
make sure you space the side burner far enough away to
facilitate its use.
Silicon sealant
Figure 4
Before installing the sleeve, lay a bead of silicon sealant
around the top perimeter and front sides of the structure
in the areas that the flanges of the sleeve will rest. This
will prevent moisture seepage. The sealant you use must
have a temperature rating above 120°F. If necessary,
caulk between the flange of the sleeve and finished
countertop surface.
WARNING: All countertop finished surfaces must be
constructed of a noncombustible material.
