Delta Heat 38-Inch Built-In Gas Grill

Appliance cutout

Required opening
36.5 W × 19.75 D × 9.5 H in.

Plan a noncombustible cutout 36.5 inches wide, 19.75 inches deep and 9.5 inches high. These are opening dimensions, separate from the overall grill size. Combustible cabinetry requires the compatible insulating jacket and its own cutout. Provide 120V, 60Hz power on a dedicated 15-amp circuit. Have a qualified installer verify gas supply, regulator, ventilation and clearances using the exact-model manual before construction.

Included equipment

  • 3 stainless steel cooking grates
  • One stainless steel warming rack
  • Briquette tray assemblies
  • One natural gas regulator

Frequently asked questions

How does the 38-inch Delta Heat organize everyday grilling?

The 38-inch Delta Heat has three main cooking burner positions. Its cooking grates sit above briquette tray assemblies, with a warming rack providing another place to manage food during the meal. Use the main controls to organize cooking around the foods you are preparing, and keep adjacent preparation and serving space in the plan. The equipment package matters as well as the width: a standard model, a rotisserie model and an RS model do not supply the same cooking equipment.

What changes on the 38-inch grill when I choose the sear package?

This selection uses three stainless steel U-burners and does not include an infrared sear burner. The RS package replaces one U-burner with an infrared sear burner rather than adding a fourth main position. That changes the cooking equipment beneath the grates. Compare the exact equipment selection before ordering, especially when choosing a control-panel finish; only the combinations shown by the family selectors are offered.

What does the 38-inch rotisserie package add to the equipment supplied?

The selected standard grill does not include the integrated rotisserie system. Choose a rotisserie-equipped family configuration if that cooking method is part of your plan, and check its Included equipment list for the components supplied. Do not assume the standard grill has the same rear burner and rotating-spit equipment as an R or RS selection. The RS package also changes one main cooking position to infrared searing.

Which measurements should guide my 38-inch installation?

The bare-grill opening is 36.5 inches wide, 19.75 inches deep and 9.5 inches high in a suitable noncombustible enclosure. These are cutout measurements, not the overall appliance dimensions. A combustible installation requires the compatible insulating jacket and its separate drawing. Plan the gas connection, ventilation, clearances and 120V, 60Hz electrical supply on a dedicated 15-amp circuit before construction, using the exact-model manual with your installer.

How should I plan matching appliances around the 38-inch grill?

A matching side burner or power burner is a separate appliance, with its own opening, gas connection and installation requirements. Outdoor-rated refrigeration also needs its own space and utilities; it does not share the grill cutout. The recommendations on this page should be considered alongside your selected fuel and installation. Start with the grill’s included equipment, then plan preparation surfaces, access and the remaining appliances as a complete outdoor kitchen.

OUR PRODUCT ASSESSMENT

Hearth Outpost Score

8.2/10

We like Delta Heat for an outdoor kitchen where the grill needs to feel substantial without turning dinner into a technology project. Stainless cooking hardware, ceramic briquettes and useful lighting make a practical foundation for everyday meals. Choose the burner configuration carefully: a dedicated sear zone and rear rotisserie burner change what you can cook. Owners praise the cooking and finish, while heat-distribution and weather-exposure experiences make placement and maintenance worth planning. We would choose the right equipment and installation before simply moving up to the widest model.

What owners are saying

Owners appreciate steady everyday cooking, useful lights and a grill that feels well made. One describes vegetables and burgers cooking evenly and particularly enjoys the infrared burner; another reports that the stainless finish remained attractive through a year of coastal use. Longer-term experiences are more mixed. A six-year owner describes deteriorating internal parts and ignition trouble, while another finds the rear of the cooking surface hotter than the front. These experiences make the exact burner layout, weather protection and access for maintenance meaningful parts of the purchase.

What stands out

Cooking equipment chosen around your meals

The conventional burners and ceramic briquettes suit a familiar grilling routine. If steak searing and rotisserie cooking are regular plans, compare the R and RS equipment before ordering. Owners who use the infrared option describe it as a worthwhile part of the cooking experience; it should be a deliberate choice rather than an assumed inclusion.

Lighting that earns its place

Owners specifically appreciate the lighting, and we can see its practical value when dinner runs past sunset. Illuminated controls help you find your settings, while the interior lights put attention on the food. Plan the electrical connection with the gas connection so those conveniences are ready when the grill is installed.

What to weigh before buying

Learn the heat across the cooking surface

Do not assume every part of the grate behaves identically. An owner reports a hotter rear section, even after checking the gas supply. Give yourself time to learn the grill's cooking zones, and choose the dedicated sear configuration if that capability is central to how you cook.

Keep water and grease management in the plan

One owner describes rain collecting in the drip tray despite using a cover. Choose the location thoughtfully, inspect the tray after wet weather and keep the cleaning routine easy to reach. Stainless construction still needs care, particularly near salt air, pools or irrigation.

Check the opening and component coverage

For a replacement grill, measure the existing island against the exact model's installation drawing before ordering. Keep service access available and review the coverage for individual parts: the longest warranty terms do not apply equally to ignition, lighting, trays and labor.

Value Consideration

Delta Heat makes the strongest case when you value substantial cooking hardware and will use the lighting and selected burner options regularly. Budget for the completed installation as well as the grill. Spending on the right searing or rotisserie configuration can be more useful than paying for extra width that your normal meals will not fill.

The Delta Heat story

An engineering heritage. A place in your outdoor kitchen.

Delta Heat was introduced by Twin Eagles founder and gas engineer Dante Cantal in 2012. It brought his experience in cooking equipment to a grill line designed to offer a wider range of outdoor kitchens the performance and quality he valued.

Made in the USA, Delta Heat grills carry that shared engineering heritage into everyday outdoor cooking. The collection forms part of the Twin Eagles Dometic family, alongside coordinated equipment for building an outdoor kitchen around the grill.
