2024 Buying Guide for Patio Grills

Outdoor grilling is more than just a way to cook—it's about creating a space where people can gather, relax, and enjoy the simple pleasure of good food. For property managers, developers, and homeowners looking to enhance the value of their multi-family living spaces, installing patio grills in common areas can be a game-changer. Whether it’s a fixed-in-place model or a portable option, these grills bring convenience, style, and functionality to any outdoor area.

PGS Grill offers a wide range of high-quality patio grills designed specifically for apartment complexes, condos, and other multi-family environments. With options that include natural gas and propane models, as well as various mounting styles, there’s a perfect grill for every setting. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know to choose the right patio grill for your community.

Choosing Between Natural Gas and Propane

The first decision you'll face is whether to go with natural gas or propane. The choice depends on what fuel source is available at your location. If your property has access to a municipal natural gas line, then a natural gas grill is an excellent option. These grills are typically installed permanently and don’t require a fuel tank, making them ideal for long-term use in communal areas.

On the other hand, if you don't have access to natural gas or prefer a more flexible setup, a propane grill is the way to go. Propane grills come with a fuel tank that can be easily replaced when empty, and they're often portable, allowing you to move them around as needed. PGS offers both natural gas and propane versions of each model, so you can choose based on your needs without compromising on quality.

Mounting Options That Fit Your Space

Once you’ve decided on the type of grill, the next step is choosing the right mounting option. The right mount can make a big difference in how your outdoor cooking area functions and looks. Here are some popular choices:

• In-Ground Post: A secure pole installed directly into the ground with the grill mounted on top. Ideal for saving space and offering a cost-effective solution for multiple grills in shared areas.
• Pedestal Mount: A base that holds the grill upright, often made of stainless steel or powder-coated black. These mounts hide fuel lines and tanks, making them both functional and visually appealing.
• Portable Cart: Perfect for those who want flexibility. These grills sit on wheels, allowing easy movement and storage when not in use.
• Custom Outdoor Countertops: Great for a built-in look, but may be expensive and require structural considerations like weight limits.
• Grill Islands: Prefabricated units that offer the look and feel of a custom kitchen at a lower cost and with less weight than traditional masonry setups.

Durability Matters: Cast Aluminum vs. Stainless Steel

When it comes to durability, both cast aluminum and stainless steel grills from PGS are built to last. They’re designed to withstand harsh weather conditions while maintaining performance and aesthetics over time.

Stainless Steel Grills: Known for their sleek appearance and resistance to rust, stainless steel models like the S27T, S36T, and S48T are great for larger spaces and high-traffic areas. Their internal components are also made of stainless steel, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Cast Aluminum Grills: More affordable than stainless steel, these models are still highly durable and resistant to corrosion. The T30 and T40 grills are ideal for smaller communal areas, offering enough power for families without taking up too much space.

Standard and Optional Accessories

PGS grills come with a variety of standard accessories to make outdoor cooking safer and more convenient. Features like gas-flow shutoff timers, anti-theft control dials, and laser-etched instructions ensure ease of use for all residents.

For those looking for extra features, optional accessories such as lift-assist handles, infrared rotisserie burners, side burners, and beverage centers can elevate the grilling experience. These add-ons provide additional functionality and comfort, making your outdoor kitchen even more inviting.

Whether you're managing a large apartment complex or building a new development, selecting the right patio grill can greatly enhance the lifestyle of your residents. With the right setup, you can create a space that brings people together and adds real value to your property.
