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

Alfresco Intelligent Professional 14" Built-In Double Side Burner AIPGSB-2

The AIPGSB-2 is the side burner Alfresco built to match its Intelligent Professional grills. Two burners put out a combined 40,000 BTUH under a recessed, wind-shielded top, and the knobs carry the same LumaTouch™ lighting as the AIPG grill beside it — so the burner station reads as part of the grill rather than as an afterthought dropped into the counter. It installs as a built-in unit in an outdoor kitchen island, or mounts to an Alfresco cart grill in place of the side shelf.

Before the island gets cut: about the cutout dimensions

You will notice there is no cutout measurement in the list above. That is deliberate. Alfresco publishes a spec sheet for the previous-generation AXESB-2 burner but has not released one for the AIPGSB-2, and a countertop cut to a number carried over from a different model is an expensive mistake to make in stone.

Call us at 843-212-7209 and we will pull the current AIPGSB-2 cutout drawing from Alfresco for your fuel type and finish before your fabricator templates the counter.

What the manufacturer does specify: keep 3" of clearance from the sides and 3" from the back to any combustible construction. If the burner sits under overhead combustible construction, a UL-710 or ULC-S646 approved heavy-duty vent hood is required.

AIPGSB-2 or AXESB-2 — which side burner do you actually need?

Both are 40,000 BTU Alfresco double side burners, both are commercial stainless steel with heli-arc welded seams, and both drop into an island cutout. The difference is the control package and the price.

The AXESB-2 is the long-running AXE-series burner, with control knob accent lights matched to the AXE and ALXE grill lines. The AIPGSB-2 is the Intelligent Professional version: LumaTouch™ precision control with knob lighting that matches an AIPG grill's control panel.

If your grill is an AIPG, buy the AIPGSB-2 — the controls and lighting line up. If your grill is an ALXE or AXE, or the burner is going in on its own, the AXESB-2 cooks identically for less.

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

The AIPGSB-2 is a pot-and-pan station. Two independently controlled burners mean a sauce can hold at a simmer while a stockpot runs hard beside it — the right tool for side dishes, sauces, blanching and seafood.

If what you want is high-heat searing rather than pot work, the Alfresco Sear Zone side burner AXESZ is the ceramic infrared alternative. If you boil in volume — low-country boils, crab pots, fryers — step up to the Versa Power cooker: the AIPGVP in this same Intelligent Professional trim, or the AXE-series AXEVP. Both run 400 to 65,000 BTU and take pots up to 100 quarts. Everything we stock in this category is in the burners collection, and this one sits in side burners $1,000–$2,000.

Fuel and utility requirements

Order the variant that matches the gas you already have. Natural gas ships as AIPGSB-2-NG and operates at 4.0" W.C. Propane ships as AIPGSB-2-LP, operates at 10.0" W.C., and includes the PROP-KIT-01 hose and dual in-line regulator with a QCC1 tank connection. The two are not field-convertible, so confirm your supply before ordering.

Electrically it needs 115 VAC on a GFCI-protected circuit. The 8 ft. cord ends in a standard three-prong grounding plug, so plan a weather-rated outlet inside the island within reach of the burner cabinet. Our natural gas and propane grills FAQs cover fuel selection in more detail.
