Alfresco Sear Zone Kit AIPG-SZK-36 - Multi-Position Infrared Sear Insert for 36" AIPG Grills FAQs
Which grills take the AIPG-SZK-36?
Alfresco's 36-inch Intelligent Professional grills, meaning the AIPG-36 built-in and the AIPG-36C cart model. The 42-inch grills use a different kit, and none of it is interchangeable with the ALXE series.
What does Multi-Position mean on this kit?
You choose where the searing zone sits. Unlike a fixed sear station, this insert can be placed at the left, center, or right of the cooking surface, and you can run more than one zone if you want additional searing area.
On a 36-inch surface, that flexibility decides how you cook. Put the high heat where it suits your routine rather than working around where the factory put it.
Why infrared rather than a hotter gas burner?
Infrared burners reach far higher surface temperatures than standard gas burners, and that is what produces an even steakhouse crust instead of grey banding across the meat. Alfresco was the first manufacturer to combine infrared and stainless steel burners in a single grill.
My AIPG already has a Sear Zone. Do I need this?
No. Some Intelligent Professional configurations ship with SearZone already installed, in which case this kit is redundant. Check the model designation on your grill before ordering.
What is the kit made of?
304 stainless steel, consistent with the rest of the Intelligent Professional series it installs into.
Alfresco Sear Zone Kit AIPG-SZK-36 for 36" Intelligent Professional Grills
Alfresco invented the Sear Zone, combining an infrared burner with stainless steel burners in the same grill, and this kit adds that capability to a 36-inch Intelligent Professional grill. The AIPG-SZK-36 is the Multi-Position Sear Zone insert, which means you are not locked into one searing location: place the high-heat zone on the left, center, or right depending on how you are cooking, and add more than one zone if you want.
The practical result is a dedicated steakhouse-grade searing station inside a grill that still does everything else. Sear over infrared at one end while running gentler heat at the other for vegetables or holding finished food, without compromising either.

Let customers speak for us
Fast shipping and exactly what I needed

I absolutely love my Coyote gas grill! The quality is excellent, it looks beautiful, and I’m very happy with my purchase.
I also want to give a special thank you to Ryan at Northwoods Grills. He was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. Before my grill even arrived, he took the time to help me with measurements and answered all of my questions to make sure everything would fit properly. He was always very attentive, patient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. His customer service really made a difference and made the whole experience so much easier for me.
It’s not often that you receive this level of personal attention and customer service. I truly appreciate all of Ryan’s help and would absolutely recommend Northwoods Grills. Great product and outstanding customer service!
Fabiane Da Silva
Best pricing available for the product (checked all other on line retailers), and Ryan provided excellent responsiveness during the sales process. Loved dealing directly with the owner vs a sales person.
Delivery was completed within a week of the order and Ryan stayed in touch with consistent follow-up to ensure the products met my expectations.
Will recommend to friends / others looking for a high-end built in grill and matching cabinets.

Don’t know how i ever cooked without this before. Love the char this locks in the meat every time. May add a second one to the other end of the grill.
John L
Great quality.

I was caught in a bind with a DIFFERENT provider, and Ryan was able to get me exactly what I needed, he reached out to the manufacturer for me to confirm specs and had my shipment mailed out same day. If you’re in the market for any outdoor kitchen needs, look no further than Northwoods!
Barret Thompson
