Selecting the Perfect Outdoor Patio Grills for New Residential Development Projects

7 minute read | Grills

Constructing a residential complex that offers luxury amenities can significantly boost the return on investment for developers. However, in today's competitive market, it's the extra touches that truly set a project apart. Just a few years ago, adding a fitness center or community pool could make a difference. Now, those features are standard, and potential buyers and renters are looking for more. That's why many developers are incorporating outdoor commercial grills into shared spaces, encouraging thoughts of family gatherings and community events within the grounds themselves.

One of the great advantages of designing a new residential project is starting from scratch. While architects focus on creating modern interiors with open floor plans and walk-in closets, the exterior spaces are a blank canvas. This presents an opportunity to design unique areas where residents can gather, cook, and socialize. Here are some innovative ways outdoor commercial gas grills are being used in new developments.

Types Of Developments That Benefit From Outdoor Patio Grills

Apartment complexes are increasingly adding portable LP grills at various points throughout their grounds. These units are typically cost-effective and can be permanently installed if desired. Gated communities catering to older demographics are finding that leisure areas with outdoor gas grills and picnic spots help sell homes at premium prices. Condominiums are also jumping on the trend, installing natural gas grills to show they're responsive to resident needs. Multi-family homes and even resorts are seeing the appeal of including LP or natural gas grills, as they add a touch of luxury and practicality.

If your project is still in the early stages, considering one of the top-tier outdoor commercial grills from the PGS line might be worth exploring. These models continue to lead the outdoor gas grill market. But which type of grill best suits your residents' needs?

Understanding Natural Gas Grills

Stainless steel natural gas grills can be connected directly to an existing line or incorporated into the building plan. For safety reasons, natural gas grills must be fixed in place and can be expensive to relocate. Therefore, project planners should aim for a centralized location that feels inclusive to all residents. Even though moving a natural gas grill is possible, careful planning can prevent unnecessary expenses. The PGS line includes several series—A-Series, T-Series, and Legacy Series—that are designed to run efficiently on natural gas. Here are some common strategies developers use when integrating these grills:

  • Installing multiple smaller grills in one area to reduce costs and offer more options for residents
  • Opting for a large commercial grill that makes a strong impression on potential buyers and renters

No matter how many or what size of outdoor commercial grills you choose for your community, all PGS models can be upgraded with advanced accessories.

Understanding Liquid Propane Grills

LP grill models are favored for their flexibility. Their fuel tanks are housed in the base, making them mobile and easy to fix in place. Like natural gas grills, LP grills are cost-efficient and can be relocated if needed. Planners often leave the placement of LP grills to evolve naturally as the common areas take shape. Sometimes allowing residents to move portable units around during a trial period can provide valuable insights into optimal placement and quantity.

  • Tanks are easily swapped out and inexpensive
  • LP grills can be tied to an existing line and permanently fixed
  • Portable units can be moved to accommodate various gatherings, big or small

Regardless of which PGS LP grill you choose, top-tier products can be customized with sought-after accessories.

Grill Accessories Residents Will Love

Adding outdoor commercial grills to condos, apartments, gated communities, or multi-family homes often enhances the appeal of a property. People love the rich flavors of grilled vegetables, meats, and unique dishes. Beyond enhancing taste, grilling outdoors also lets residents enjoy fresh air and sunshine. Don't be surprised if your residents seek out accessories to expand their grilling repertoire. Here are some popular PGS accessories that enhance the experience:

  • Side Shelves: Having a side shelf to place sauces, utensils, and cooling foods is essential. It adds convenience and functionality.
  • Side Burners: Multitasking with a side burner allows chefs to prepare sides or boil water while grilling the main dish, ensuring perfect timing.
  • Infrared Rotisserie Burner & Spit: Next-gen technology enables cooking whole chickens, pineapples, and kabobs with ease.
  • Beverage Center: Including a beverage center keeps drinks cold without the need for ice-filled coolers.
  • Storage Drawers: Designated spaces for tongs, utensils, and thermometers keep the cooking area tidy.
  • Automatic Gas Shut-Off Timer: Essential for avoiding wasteful fuel usage and preventing accidents.

Residential developers invest heavily in the hope of achieving the best return on investment. Integrating outdoor commercial grills as a perk and key selling point remains a cost-effective way to boost both profitability and resident satisfaction.
