Alfresco Intelligent Professional 14" Cart-Mount Double Side Burner AIPGSB-2C - 40,000 BTU, 2 Burners, 304 Stainless Steel with LumaTouch Lighting

Alfresco Intelligent Professional 14" Cart-Mount Double Side Burner AIPGSB-2C

The AIPGSB-2C is the cart-mounted version of Alfresco's Intelligent Professional double side burner. It replaces a side shelf on an AIPG cart grill with a two-burner station putting out a combined 40,000 BTUH, and it carries the same LumaTouch™ precision control and knob lighting as the grill it bolts to — which is the entire reason to buy this rather than the AXE-series burner.

Alfresco is explicit that this one integrates with the Intelligent Series cart grill. Next to an AIPG panel the knobs, the lighting and the finish read as one appliance instead of two.

About the electrical requirement

Alfresco's care and use manual for this burner line specifies 115 VAC, 50/60 Hz with an 8 ft. cord and a three-prong grounding plug, on a GFCI-protected circuit. LumaTouch knob lighting needs mains power to run, so that is consistent.

What we will not do is state it as settled: Alfresco's manual covers the AIPGSB-2 and refers to cart models only generically, without naming the AIPGSB-2C separately — and the AXE-series cart burner uses a battery igniter rather than mains, so the cart variants do not always follow the built-in. Call 843-212-7209 before you run an outlet to the patio and we will confirm the requirement for the unit we would ship.

Which cart grills does it fit?

Alfresco specifies it for the Intelligent Series cart grills — the AIPG-36C and the AIPG-42C. In both cases a side shelf comes off and the burner assembly takes its place.

If your cart grill is an ALXE rather than an AIPG, this is the wrong burner — the AXESB-2C is the AXE-series equivalent, it costs less, and its controls match an ALXE panel.

AIPGSB-2C or AXESB-2C?

Both are 40,000 BTU Alfresco cart-mount double side burners in commercial stainless with heli-arc welded seams. The difference is the control package, and it should follow your grill.

The AIPGSB-2C carries LumaTouch precision control and knob lighting matched to the AIPG Intelligent Professional grills. The AXESB-2C has control knob accent lights matched to the AXE and ALXE lines. Buying the cheaper one to sit beside an AIPG grill saves money and then annoys you every evening, because the knobs light differently.

Cart-mount or built-in?

This is the cart burner. If it is going into a masonry or stainless island instead, you want the built-in AIPGSB-2, which drops into a countertop cutout. A cart burner has no island cutout — it bolts to the grill.

The safety point specific to carts: Alfresco states that portable, cart-mounted side burners must not be used under overhead combustible construction. A rolling grill parked under a wooden pergola is the case people get wrong.

Two pot burners, a sear burner, or a power burner?

This is a pot-and-pan station. Two independently controlled burners let a sauce hold at a simmer while a stockpot runs hard beside it — sides, sauces, blanching and seafood.

For high-heat searing instead, the Alfresco Sear Zone AXESZ is the ceramic infrared alternative. For volume boiling and frying, the Versa Power cooker AIPGVP in this same Intelligent trim runs 400 to 65,000 BTU and takes pots to 100 quarts. The category is in our burners collection, and this one sits in side burners over $2,000.

Pairs with

• Alfresco Intelligent Professional 36" Cart Grill AIPG-36C
• Alfresco Intelligent Professional 42" Cart Grill AIPG-42C
• Alfresco Cover for 36" Cart Grill with Side Burner AGV-36CSB
• Alfresco Cover for 42" Cart Grill with Side Burner AGV-42CSB
• All cart grills

• The full Alfresco range

Note the cover part number: once the side burner is on the cart, the grill needs the wider -CSB cover rather than the plain cart cover. It is the most common ordering mistake on this product.
