With advancements in outdoor cooking technology, the possibilities for creating a luxurious and functional outdoor kitchen are literally endless.

Ryan Maltbie of BBQs.com, one of the leading sources for barbecue grills and other outdoor amenities summarized the growing trend recently on the Pool Magazine podcast when he said, “An outdoor kitchen is always paramount to the success of a backyard. Anytime that you are entertaining or catering to family and friends in your backyard parties and events, an outdoor kitchen just brings everybody together.” He also give us a list of the hottest products that will be trending in the backyard this season.

Planning an outdoor kitchen with an island barbecue grill can be an exciting and rewarding project for any homeowner who loves to grill and entertain guests. An island grill is a popular choice for outdoor kitchens as it serves as the focal point, providing a functional and aesthetically pleasing centerpiece for the outdoor space.

The first step in planning an outdoor kitchen with an island barbecue grill is to determine the location and layout of the island. Consider the available space in your outdoor area and the flow of the overall space. The island should be strategically positioned to allow for easy access to the grill, as well as ample counter space for food preparation and serving. Consider the orientation of the island in relation to the prevailing wind direction to ensure that smoke from the grill does not blow towards seating or dining areas.

Next, consider the size and type of island barbecue grill that best fits your needs. The size of the grill should be proportionate to the overall size of the outdoor kitchen and the number of guests you typically entertain. Look for a grill with features such as multiple burners, a rotisserie, and a side burner for added versatility in cooking options. Consider the type of fuel for the grill, such as propane, natural gas, or charcoal, based on your preferences and availability.

When designing an outdoor kitchen, think about the functionality and aesthetics of the space. Include ample counter space for food preparation and serving, as well as storage for grilling accessories, utensils, and other supplies. Consider adding a sink, refrigerator, and other amenities to enhance the functionality of the outdoor kitchen. Choose materials that are durable, weather-resistant, and easy to clean, such as stainless steel, stone, or tile, to ensure that the island withstands the elements and requires minimal maintenance.

Consider the overall design and style of the outdoor kitchen and island barbecue grill to create a cohesive look that complements your outdoor space and personal style. Choose a design that integrates seamlessly with the existing landscaping and architectural features of your home. Consider adding lighting, seating, and other amenities to create an inviting and functional outdoor living space that is perfect for entertaining friends and family.

The cost of purchasing an outdoor pizza oven can vary greatly depending on various factors such as the type, size, material, brand, and features of the oven.

An outdoor refrigerator can be a great addition to your outdoor living space, providing convenient access to cold drinks, snacks, and perishable items while enjoying the outdoors. One of the main reasons to purchase an outdoor refrigerator is the convenience it offers, allowing you to keep your beverages and food chilled without having to constantly go inside to access your indoor refrigerator. It can enhance your outdoor entertainment experience by providing a convenient storage solution for your outdoor gatherings, BBQs, and parties.

When choosing an outdoor refrigerator, there are several considerations to keep in mind. First, durability is key, as outdoor refrigerators need to withstand exposure to the elements, including rain, sun, and temperature fluctuations. Look for a refrigerator made of high-quality materials such as stainless steel or weather-resistant materials that can resist rust and corrosion.

Temperature control is another important factor to consider. Make sure the refrigerator has a wide temperature range suitable for storing both beverages and perishable items, and that it has a reliable temperature control system to ensure consistent cooling performance in varying outdoor conditions.

Size and capacity are also crucial considerations. Measure the available space in your outdoor area and choose a refrigerator that fits well in that space while providing enough storage capacity to meet your needs. Consider how much space you need for beverages, snacks, and other items, and choose a refrigerator with adequate shelving, drawers, and door compartments.

Other features to consider include energy efficiency, ease of installation, and additional functionalities such as interior lighting, lockable doors, and adjustable shelving. Additionally, look for reputable brands with good customer reviews and reliable warranties to ensure you’re investing in a quality product that will last.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) – allows contractors to actually “see” inside pool structures. GPR systems are perfect for locating reinforcing steel and determining the thickness of the concrete. Another helpful aspect of GPR is its use in locating elements inside of framed buildings, pipes, and conduits. Though these systems typically are priced at over $12,000, once prorated across many jobs, the cost is minuscule, while the benefits can be monumental.

Ground Penetrating Radar is a geophysical method that uses radar pulses to image the subsurface of the ground. It is a non-destructive and non-intrusive technique commonly employed in various fields, including archaeology, geology, environmental studies, civil engineering, and utility detection. The primary purpose of GPR is to identify and map subsurface features, anomalies, or objects without the need for excavation.

GPR works by emitting short pulses of electromagnetic waves into the ground. These radar pulses penetrate the subsurface and interact with different materials and structures. As the waves encounter boundaries between materials, some of the energy is reflected back to the surface. The GPR antenna receives these reflections, and the system processes the signals to create a detailed image of the subsurface. GPR is widely used for utility detection, subsurface mapping, and construction applications, providing valuable information without the need for excavation.

Today, construction technology is evolving. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has become a valuable tool for pool builders and contractors in various aspects of their work. Here are some ways in which GPR can be beneficial for professionals in the pool construction industry:

Today, there are a number of intelligent reasons to be using a ground penetrating radar to scan your pool shells. GPR is a non-destructive method to determine what is actually occurring inside of the concrete, without having to drill cores or demolish concrete. Radar allows experts to see the rebar schedule and depth within concrete. Pool construction professionals have even used them to validate the presence of bonding clamps and wire, when inspections were missed (for other contractors).

For contractors, being able to precisely locate the placement of the reinforcing steel is invaluable. When planning for coring a shell for pool lighting, add plumbing or coring for samples, it is critical to know where the steel is located. Hitting a rebar while coring can easily damage a $500 core bit. Worse yet, a handheld drill binds and kicks back, breaking the user’s thumb.

After stripping the plaster, scanning the shell can definitively determine if there’s sufficient shotcrete coverage over the steel. If it’s insufficient, then the pool can be “flashed” with additional shotcrete (at an additional charge). This will require new coping and tile as well, as the interior dimensions will change. In my own personal firm’s pool remodeling contracts, we have a disclaimer about shotcrete thickness. We will scan the shell for free, but if there is an inadequate amount of coverage, there will be a change order to add shotcrete and adjust the coping, tile and fittings. Think of this as a potential profit center. You can actually show the owners the location and depth of the rebar.

GPR companies charge $500-600 for a 1-hour visit. You can see how quickly owning a GPR unit can pay for itself. After a while, it will actually start earning you money! A Proceq GP8800 can be had for around $12,000 plus the cost of an iPad.
