Alfresco Areas – indoors – fully enclosed

Indoor approved Barbeques or Grills arent as pretty as outdoor ones as they are function for safety as well as grilling!

These shown are commercial kitchen grills and have safety devices which only allow the gas to flow when the gas is lit. Domestic outdoor Bareques are more designed for looks as they are outside and do not have additional safety features as those that are approved for indoors.

One cannot assume that becuse you have a rangehood and the Barbeque has an interlocking device fitted that it is ok to use as the BBQ MUST BE APPROVED FOR INDOOR USE.

Sometimes a BBQ can be reapproved and once done an interlocking device and rangehood should be fitted, below are 4 people in the Barbecue Service Alliance Australia ( www.bbqsaa.com.au ) that can help..
