FAQs

The drain system helps water flow out of the grill when needed, preventing moisture from accumulating inside the firebox and around the firebricks. By allowing proper drainage, it reduces the risk of mold, mildew, and unwanted buildup that can develop when water is trapped for extended periods. This feature helps keep the interior cleaner, protects the integrity of the firebricks, and contributes to the long-term durability and performance of the grill, especially in outdoor environments exposed to rain, humidity, or frequent cleaning.

Our SI models, like any grills made from cold-rolled steel, are prone to rusting, especially in areas exposed to the highest heat, such as the firebox. This issue is more common in regions with high humidity.
Due to the nature of this material, the BBQ may develop:
Surface rust (oxidation)
Heat discoloration
Patina over time
These are natural and expected characteristics, not defects, and do not affect the performance or structural integrity of the grill.
To help preserve the grill, we recommend periodically sanding affected areas with fine sandpaper and applying a high-temperature, rust-preventive paint.
