FAQs

Should you put a cover on a barbecue?

Putting a cover on your barbecue can help protect it from insects, dirt, debris and harsh weather. Increasing its longevity. Leaving your grill uncovered can result in discolouration and rust.

Do I need a made to measure barbecue cover?

A made-to-measure barbecue cover is not necessary, but highly recommended. For bigger investments a well-sized cover will increase your barbecue’s lifespan. A well-fitted cover will protect better against UV rays, dirt, and bad weather. Additionally, if your barbecue has custom features which give it an irregular shape, standard covers may not fit.

Should a grill cover touch the ground?

Your cover should sit 3-15 cm above the ground, covering the barbecue but not touching the floor. This avoids trapping moisture in the cover. A cover that drags may also wear out quicker.

How to size a barbecue cover?

Take three measurements to get the accurate dimensions of your barbecue. Measure the maximum width, including any side shelves or burners attached. Then take the height, with the lid closed, measure top to ground. Keep your cover 3-15 cm above the ground for good ventilation. Remember this when taking your measurement. Finally measure the depth, front to back. Include any controls or dials that protrude. Add 1-3cm to the width for clearance.

What if it rains on a grill without a cover?

If your barbecue got wet in the rain, let it dry fully before covering it. Otherwise, moisture might get trapped and cause mold. Hale and heavy rain can cause damage to your barbecue so it’s best to keep it covered once it’s cooled after use.

When should I put a cover on my barbecue?

It’s best to keep your barbecue covered when not in use to protect it from dirt and debris. It’s important to air out your barbecue when you haven’t used it for a while. This helps prevent mold and moisture. After use, wait 30-60 minutes or until your barbecue has cooled completely to re-cover it. Never cover a barbecue that is warm to the touch.

What’s the best material to use for a cover?

Look for heavy-duty canvas and PVC coating. This creates a cover that is durable and weather resistant. The PVC coating provides a waterproofing quality, so is ideal for harsh rain or heavy snow. Breathability is also important to avoid moisture build-up inside the barbecue.

Do BBQ covers need to fit specific models?

A cover that fits your barbecue properly will offer better protection. A loose cover may allow wind, rain, or debris inside, or even fly off in very strong winds. A well fitted one stays secure and shields key areas. Our covers are designed to match specific Outback models, which helps ensure full coverage without excess movement.

Should a BBQ cover be completely sealed?

It is better for a cover to allow a small amount of airflow. Trapped moisture can build up under a fully sealed cover, which may lead to condensation or mould. Over a prolonged period, condensation can cause parts to rust. A breathable cover allows enough airflow to prevent moisture build-up while still keeping your barbecue dry.

Can you cover a barbecue straight after cooking?

You should always allow the barbecue to cool fully before covering it. Placing a cover over a warm grill can trap heat, which can lead to cover damage or moisture build-up. Wait until it has cooled.

How do covers help with maintenance?

A cover reduces the amount of dirt and debris that collects on and inside your barbecue. This means less frequent cleaning and fewer blockages in burners or vents. Over time, this can help maintain performance and reduce the need for repairs or replacements and keeps your barbecue shining.
