Question:
The Regulator and Hose supplied with my gas grill
does not fit the older LP Gas tank I've used for
years. Why not?
Answer:
The U.S. Government regulates gas appliances and
LP Gas tanks. When regulations are changed the LP
Gas tank fittings are altered to insure compliance. If
your LP Gas tank does not fit the Regulator and Hose
supplied with your new grill, the tank is outdated and
must be replaced. Note: Effective April 1,2002 all LP
Gas tanks sold must include an "OPD" Overfill
Prevention Device. The OPD tanks are identified by
their triangular-shaped valve wheel. This internal
device prevents the LP Gas tank from being overfilied.
Tanks without an OPD valve can not be refilled.
Question:
Is it safe to clean my porcelain coated cooking grids
in the dishwasher?
Answer:
Clean your cooking grids by hand if there are any chips
or cracks in the porcelain finish and dry them thoroughly.
If no chips or cracks are present it should be safe to use
the dishwasher. Remember to dry the cooking grids
thoroughly before placing back onto your grill to
minimize rusting.
Question:
What causes grill parts to rust and what affect does
it have on my grill?
Answer:
Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may
appear on cast-iron and steel parts. Rust will not
affect the short term performance of your grill.
To slow the rusting process on steel Cooking Grids
(select models) we recommend greasing the
Cooking Grids before and after each cookout. Use a
brush to apply a thin layer of cooking oil or vegetable
shortening onto each Cooking Grid. We do not
suggest spray type oils unless they are specified for
high-temperature cooking. Be sure to coat the entire
cooking surface including edges and any areas with
chipped porcelain.
Question:
Which is a better cooking surface to grill on;
porcelain coated steel / cast-iron cooking grids or
stainless steel grids?
Answer:
They all have their advantages. For traditional grilling
and searing meats, cast-iron or steel grids offer
better heat conductivity. To protect against the natural
rusting process, steel or cast-iron cooking grids offer
a porcelain finish which requires routine
maintenance to keep the grids well seasoned.
Stainless steel is popular with those who prefer less
maintenance.
A new innovative solution is available on select
models called stainless Therma-Core TM. This
Cooking Grid combines a heat conducting steel core
with an easy-to-clean stainless outer shell.
