Alfresco does publish an AIPGVP spec sheet, but it draws two different installation configurations — flush and recessed — with different openings for each, and the dimension callouts do not survive automated reading cleanly enough for us to stand behind a number in stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCall \u003cstrong\u003e843-212-7209\u003c\/strong\u003e and we will read the current AIPGVP cutout drawing with you, for the configuration you are actually building, before your fabricator templates the counter. A power burner opening is not a cut you get to redo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat the manufacturer does state plainly: 3\" minimum clearance around the whole perimeter to combustible construction. If the burner goes under overhead combustible construction, Alfresco requires a UL-710 or ULC-S646 approved heavy-duty vent hood, running whenever the burner runs, mounted at least 30\" above the cooking surface, rated 1,200 CFM baffled or 900 CFM non-baffled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAIPGVP or AXEVP — which Versa Power do you need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe burner is the same. Both are 400 to 65,000 BTUH, both use the brass centre burner and stainless outer tube burner, both take the same 5\/16\" spider grate and the same 100-quart pots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference is the control panel. The AIPGVP carries LumaTouch precision control lighting matched to the AIPG Intelligent Professional grills. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/alfresco-24-versapower-cooker\"\u003eAXEVP Versa Power cooker\u003c\/a\u003e is the AXE-series version and costs less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy the AIPGVP if it is going in beside an AIPG grill and you want the controls to match. Buy the AXEVP if it is going in beside an ALXE or AXE grill, or standing on its own where the panel lighting does not matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePower burner, double side burner, or sear burner?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese three do genuinely different jobs, and buying the wrong one is the most common mistake we see on this part of an island.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eVersa Power\u003c\/strong\u003e is for volume and for range: seafood boils, frying, stocks, canning, and — at the other end — sauce work at 400 BTU that a normal burner cannot hold. Alfresco also calls it out for European French Top use, where you move pans across a heat gradient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003edouble side burner\u003c\/strong\u003e is for everyday pots and pans beside the grill: two conventional burners for sides, sauces and blanching.

Natural gas connects through a 1\/2\" NPT fitting. Propane uses a 3\/8\" ODF inlet at 10.0\" W.C. and ships with the PROP-KIT-01 hose and dual in-line regulator terminating in a QCC1 connection for a standard 20 lb. cylinder. The two configurations are not interchangeable in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectrically it needs 115 VAC at 1.0 A on a GFCI-protected circuit — Alfresco requires GFCI, not merely recommends it. The 8 ft. cord ends in a three-prong grounding plug, so plan a weather-rated outlet inside the island within reach.
