Alfresco 36" Insulated Jacket AIJ-36-01 - For 36" Built-In Grills, Combustible Construction

Alfresco 36" Insulated Jacket AIJ-36-01

If your 36-inch Alfresco grill is going into anything other than solid non-combustible masonry, this jacket is part of the installation, not an accessory. The AIJ-36-01 is Alfresco's specified insulating liner for dropping a 36-inch grill head into a wood-framed, composite, or similar combustible island, creating the thermal barrier between the grill body and the surrounding structure.

It does two jobs at once. It keeps sustained grill heat away from framing, cabinetry, and adjacent finishes, and it gives the grill a properly engineered enclosure instead of an improvised one. Built from stainless steel to match the grill it surrounds, it holds up to the same outdoor conditions and the same heat cycling, year after year.

Key Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an insulated jacket for a 36-inch Alfresco grill?
Yes, if the island is built from combustible materials such as a wood or composite frame. In a fully non-combustible masonry island it may not be required. Always confirm against Alfresco's installation manual and local building code before framing.

Does the AIJ-36-01 fit both the ALXE and AIPG 36-inch grills?
Alfresco lists the AIJ-36-01 as the insulated jacket for its 36-inch grills, including the ALXE-36 and the Intelligent Professional AIPG-36. Confirm the current spec sheet for your exact model and production year before ordering.

Does the jacket change my cutout dimensions?
Yes. A jacketed installation requires a different opening than a bare built-in installation. Frame to the jacket's spec sheet, not the grill's.

Is the grill included?
No. This is the insulated jacket only.
