Installing an Electric Outdoor Grill

Project: Kitchen Remodel, Episode 12, Part 3

Part 1: Creating a Tropical Sinkhole Garden
Part 2: Selecting a Paint Color and Painting the Exterior Stucco Walls
Part 3: Installing an Electric Outdoor Grill: Bob and contractor Ed Weller look at the outside electric grill. The Gen Air grill uses weatherproof wiring and sealants to protect it from the environment. It also includes a down draft feature to keep smoke to a minimum and several grill and steamer attachments.

This project features the remodeling and expansion of the kitchen and family room of a 15-year-old suburban Miami tract house. Innovative and fun projects include walls built using insulated concrete forms, stucco application, and glass block walls.
