Has worked out to be fairly cost effective, Out of curiosity where did you get your stainless steel quote from??, did that include the substrate the steel is on or just the sheet, I thought it was a lot more expensive, I may reconsider the bench top ! If you are interested in hebel they have a diy bbq plan on there website. cheers hunts Re: The Outdoor Kitchen! 4Sep 06, 2011 8:23 pm hunts01 I have resolved to build a timber frame and use hebel power panels and caesarstone for the benchtops. Just in case you weren't told by your installer, your Caesarstone won't be covered under warranty if you install it in an outdoor kitchen (unless the outdoor kitchen is completely enclosed, but then it's hardly "outdoor"), because it will be prone to weathering/fading/sun damage. The only benchtop options that won't have their warranty affected in an outdoor kitchen are granite or stainless steel. Re: The Outdoor Kitchen! 5Sep 20, 2011 6:31 pm That's a neat idea! I've never tried anything like that, but I can imagine that a stone would be your best bet for the countertops. Re: The Outdoor Kitchen! 6Sep 23, 2011 5:35 pm Hi All I want to put an outdoor kitchen in my Alfresco in a house yet to be built. The plans have been approved by council and I am waiting for final tender to come back. I asked for a tap in the Alfresco for water to a sink but I have just thought where is this going to drain to. How easy is it to connect to the drain after the house has been built. I think it is too late to ask this to be added into our house by the builder now as they charge for every change at this point. I also want to put a sink into a garden shed that has not yet be built and again same thing forgot to add in. I did remember the power to the shed. Any feedback would be appreciated.
