Safely Grill on Combustible Surfaces
It’s extremely important to have some form of heat shield between the bottom of your grill and any combustible surfaces. Saffire offers an inexpensive build kit for placing your Saffire on a combustible surface, such as a wooden table, which adds 1 1/2″ of space between your grill and the surface beneath it. This kit adds two separate levels of air between your grill and the surface below, which greatly reduces the heat transfer between the bottom of the grill and what lies beneath. In addition, Saffire Platinum grill heads come with either an Ash Pan or an Efficiency Plate, both of which act as a heat shield inside the grill itself.
Alternatively, solid, noncombustible, materials can be placed between the combustible surface and the bottom of your Saffire, however in this case we recommend that surface be at least 1 1/4″ to 1 1/2″ in height to provide the heat resistance needed for safely using your grill at high temperatures.
