PLANNING YOUR NAPOLEON MODULAR OUTDOOR ISLAND
With OASIS™ Modular Islands you can transform your backyard into a true barbecue oasis. The versale
modules can be arranged in a way that ts your grilling needs. OASIS™ outdoor kitchens can be freestanding or
mounted against a non-combusble wall.
The cabinets are designed to be easy to assemble and install by either the home owner or private contractor.
Consider the following:
All cabinets are 35” (889 mm) tall by 24” (610 mm) deep and 24” (610 mm) wide, except for the BUILT-IN
grill cabinets whose width correspond to the width of the grill head unit it was designed for.
The fridge cabinet has a removable panel which allows access to the temperature control located at the
back of the fridge. Access to the panel must be ensured when the cabinet is installed.
Each cabinet has 4 leveling feet for adjustment on even surfaces.
The 2 drawer cabinets are made to t the Napoleon BUILT-IN series of grills only, which are available in
dierent sizes. Grill head installaon and operaon instrucons are detailed in the Owners Manual that
comes with it.
The BUILT-IN series of grills can be ordered in either propane or natural gas conguraon. Knockouts are
present in the side and rear panels for easy piping and installaon. For those who order a propane grill, a
propane tank cabinet is available.
The cabinets can be installed against a NON-COMBUSTIBLE wall of a house, a masonry or stucco half-wall,
or freestanding in an island conguraon.
Ensure there is adequate venlaon behind the fridge cabinet – a minimum gap of 6” (150 mm) is required
between the back of the cabinet and adjacent structures.
An oponal 4” (102 mm) spacer panel can be purchased and installed to ensure enough clearance for the
grill lid to open when installing against a wall. It also prevents debris or rodents from entering behind the
cabinets.
A powder-coated 2” (51 mm) wide end panel can be purchased to cover the knockouts and mounng
holes in the outside panels in a run of cabinets, oering a nished look.
WARNING! All gas modicaons and/or installaons must be done by a qualied gas installer.
WARNING! Never block the vents located on the back of the fridge cabinet. Failure to do so can result
in the fridge overheang.
WARNING! Never place the fridge and fridge cabinet next to the grill head and grill head cabinet.
It is recommended to use the false top drawer module IM-2DC when:
Doors and drawers get in the way of each other if placed next to a 45
o
or 90
o
transion.
A drawer, door, or paper towel/garbage module is placed next to the grill and the control panel prevents
them from fully opening and possible damages them.
A side burner kit (oponal through your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer), or a sink will be installed. The space
behind the false drawer oers enough
clearance for the side burner valve and hose roung and for the
sink’s piping.
Counter top: must be ordered and supplied locally by the homeowner.
It must be made of NON-COMBUSTIBLE material for a grill to be installed into it.
It can be ordered in advance by drawing out the cabinets arrangement oor plan and adding up the width
measurements, allowing 1-2 inches (25 mm - 51 mm) of counter top overhang.
TIP! Most counter top manufacturers are willing to come and take measurements aer assembling the
cabinets to ensure a perfect t. Granite or Corian are recommended choices of counter top materials.
In order for the drip pan to slide in and out properly, the grill head must be supported by a counter top
with a thickness between ½” (13 mm) and 1 ½” (38 mm).
The built-in grill head comes with stainless steel brackets and hardware that allow the unit to rest on the
counter top above the corresponding island cabinet.
Decorave counter tops made of ceramic le set on top of cement ling board can be made to match your
surrounding backyard furniture colors.
