Summerset Deluxe Built In Grill Cover for 40 inch Grills: protection for the biggest hood in the island
The Summerset Deluxe Built In Grill Cover for 40 inch Grills is a fitted cover for an island grill. Built in means it covers just the grill head above the counter, the hood and the control panel, and stops at the countertop. It fits Summerset 40 inch grills, the widest heads in the line. It is PVC, a thick vinyl that is waterproof and treated so the sun does not fade it. A soft flannel lining inside means it never scratches the steel, and Summerset backs it with a lifetime warranty.
Put it on when the grill is cool and dry, and it keeps rain, sprinkler spray, pollen, and grime off the stainless steel between cooks. A grill on a cart takes the longer freestanding cover instead. This is for the biggest hood, where a cover saves the most cleanup. Have a smaller grill? See the Summerset Deluxe Built In Grill Cover for 32 inch Grills. The Summerset Deluxe Built In Grill Cover for 40 inch Grills ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
Which grills is the GRILLCOV-40D cut for?
Summerset 40-inch grills in built-in installation – the widest heads in the lineup, so this is the largest of the built-in caps. It follows the 40-inch hood profile and stops at the counter, unlike freestanding covers that need a cart below. See the heads it pairs with in our built-in grill collection.
Does a bigger grill need a cover more?
More surface, more exposure. A 40-inch hood is a lot of stainless collecting water spots, pollen, and grease film, and polishing it back is a proportionally bigger job. The cover cost is fixed; the cleanup it prevents scales with the grill. On the biggest head, that math is easiest.
Will a covered stainless grill still discolor?
Dramatically less. Discoloration needs contaminants sitting on the metal – cut off rain, sprinkler spray, and airborne grime with waterproof PVC and there is little left to stain the 40-inch head. What contact remains is against soft flannel, which neither scratches nor holds moisture against the steel.
When is the wrong time to put this cover on?
Right after cooking, or during rain. Hot hoods stress PVC, and wet steel under a sealed cover is how humidity gets trapped. Wait until the 40-inch grill is cool and dry – usually by the time cleanup is done – and the cover goes on with zero downside.
How do I stop the cover getting grimy?
A hose rinse when you notice buildup and a mild-soap wipe for grease is all the PVC wants. Dry it before refitting. Since a built-in cover never touches the ground, the 40-inch cap stays far cleaner than cart covers do to begin with.
Any reason to remove the cover during long unused stretches?
Just briefly, on a dry day every few weeks, to let air circulate and confirm all is well underneath. Otherwise leave the 40-inch head covered through the off-season – constant protection is the entire strategy, and the UV-treated shell is built to take the sun exposure for you.
What is the warranty position on this cover?
It ships with Summerset’s Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty – the industry-leading, life-of-product coverage stated right in its features. The GRILLCOV-40D is therefore a one-time line on the outdoor kitchen budget rather than a consumable, which is exactly how a Deluxe-tier cover should behave.
