The first element in an Outdoor covered Kitchen is to provide ample heat. Heat sources come in a couple different manners. Radiant heat and direct heat. Keep in mind your outdoor lighting design and some of these heat sources throw off fireball glares which detract from the ambience.

Fans provide cooling affects However when in reverse mode they swirl the rising warmer air downward to guest levels. Do not turn fans on to faster speeds or the air cools rather quickly. Light fixtures can be placed in a more natural and optimal position as they can be strategically placed in the ceiling above to illuminate areas calling for more direct light. The lighting of the outdoor covered kitchen should function similarly to the lighting set up in the main kitchen with light sources and fixture types to handle ambience, dinner preparation, feeding and cooking zones, entertaining and night time fabulous scenes.
