Important Safety Considerations for Public Area BBQs

Public area BBQs often experience issues with misuse which are commonly caused by the overall design of the BBQ unit or because of incorrect use by inexperienced or careless operators. Below are some important factors to consider when choosing a BBQ for your new or existing BBQ installation.

Domestic BBQs:

• Domestic style BBQs usually run on gas with controls located at the front of the BBQ which can be easily reached by children.
• Misuse of gas BBQs can occur if the gas valves are accidentally or deliberately left on causing you a loss of gas but also creating the potential for a fire or explosion.
• Misuse can occur by leaving the gas running for too long before attempting ignition creating the potential for an explosion and/or burns.
• Misuse can be in the form of leaking connections on bottles or in the piping.
• Contamination of gas burners can cause improper flaming of the gas resulting in a possible fire hazard.

All of the above issues have happened and are very real factors to be considered. If you are an operator or provider of public access BBQ facilities we strongly urge you to consider these issues from the point of safety and also your liability. No one wants to see people, especially children, injured in any way and particularly if it can be easily avoided.

All of our BBQs are made to conform to Australia standards but in addition our Commercial style BBQs are specifically designed with inbuilt features that lower the risk of the issues outlined above. Although they are more expensive than their domestic counterparts, they will certainly provide an increase in the overall level of safety.

Commercial BBQs:

• Conform to Australian standards.
• Designed with the safety features inbuilt to avoid all but touching a hot plate.
• Fitted with an inbuilt timer which means the BBQs cannot be left on indefinitely.
• Gas cannot be left running and incorrect ignition is not possible by design.
• Simplistic operation means essentially all the operator needs to do is press a button and the rest is under your control.
• Key operation and coin-operation is available for extra control.

Please note:

• Specifications and features can vary slightly between BBQ models – please refer to the individual details for each BBQ for full information.
• We always recommend that children are fully supervised by a responsible adult in areas where a BBQ has been installed.
• It remains the responsibility of the BBQ owner to ensure that the BBQ is installed according to the instructions provided and that the condition of the BBQ is kept clean and in good working order.
