TEC Patio FR 26" Built-In Infrared Propane Gas Grill W/ Red Knobs - PFR1LP + HW0841

Our take on the Patio FR 26" Built-In Infrared Propane Gas Grill W/ Red Knobs

This built-in propane grill from TEC cooks with infrared energy rather than hot air, aiming for even heat across its cooking surface with minimal flare-ups. It can reach very high temperatures for a hard sear and also drop low enough for slow, gentle cooking. A patented stainless steel burner paired with a radiant glass panel is designed to keep food juicy and give it a charbroiled character, while U-shaped grates heat quickly to leave restaurant-style sear marks. Electronic ignition lights the burners without needing a match.

This grill suits anyone who wants a permanent, built-in outdoor setup and values fast heat-up and precise temperature range. Before buying, check that the 26-inch footprint and its roughly 296 square inches of cooking space fit your outdoor area, and confirm it runs on propane, since this model is set up for that fuel type.

About the Patio FR 26" Built-In Infrared Propane Gas Grill W/ Red Knobs

Newly improved from TEC, the Patio FR series of grills is back and better than ever! Featuring an innovative grilling system capable of cooking from a searing hot 900 degrees Fahrenheit, down to a low 200 degrees, great for low-heat smoking, searing, and everything in between. The TEC Patio FR 26-inch propane gas grill cooks with 100 percent infrared energy with no hot or cold spots, eliminating hot air and reducing moisture loss in food by up to 35 percent.

The fuel efficient 30,000 BTU burner uses less fuel than other grills, saving you money on gas. Convenient electronic ignition supplies a reliable spark to ignite the burners safely. TEC uses a patented flare-proof stainless steel infrared burner system combined with a radiant glass emitter panel, resulting in tender, juicy, charbroil flavored food.

The position of the stainless steel cooking grates, radiant glass panels, and infrared burners creates even heat distribution across the cooking surface and virtually eliminates flare-ups. The 296 square inch cooking surface is covered by unique, U-shaped cooking grates which heat very quickly, delivering restaurant-style sear marks on your food. TEC Patio grills are capable of heating up to 900 degrees in 10 minutes with the hood closed, making long preheating times are a thing of the past.

The need for a side burner is also eliminated because you can place your pots or pans on the cooking grids or radiant panels to heat and cook like on an indoor cooktop. Enjoy quick and easy cleanup, with a self-cleaning cooking surface that incinerates food and debris in 10-15 minutes while the grill is on high.
