Know before you buy
The 3/8-inch thickness provides superior heat retention and even distribution across the entire 540-square-inch surface. This density prevents hot spots and ensures the griddle maintains a consistent temperature even when cooking large batches of food.
Yes, the Echelon Diamond E660i requires a standard electrical connection to power the hot surface ignition system and the LED-backlit control knobs.
The griddle features a front-access grease tray designed to catch runoff during cooking. It utilizes a disposable drip tray system, which allows you to simply remove and replace the liner for quick and efficient cleanup.
Because this is a built-in appliance, you must use an insulated jacket if you are installing it into a combustible material like wood or composite. Always consult the installation manual for specific clearance requirements to ensure safety.
The included stainless steel lid is primarily designed to protect the griddle surface from the elements when the unit is not in use. It is recommended to keep the lid open while cooking to ensure proper airflow and prevent grease buildup on the interior.
The Echelon Diamond E660i is available in both natural gas and propane configurations. Please ensure you select the correct fuel type for your specific outdoor kitchen setup, as they are not typically field-convertible.
