Features
- 60,000 BTU in two rings: 25,000 BTU inner and 35,000 BTU outer, each on its own knob, for simmering, searing or a full boil.
- Fast boil: Blaze rates it to bring water to a boil in half the time of other power burners.
- Wind guard: a stainless guard around the rings keeps wind off the flame and heat on the pan.
- Red LED knob lighting: easy to see and use after dark; powered by the included transformer.
- Narrow 15-3/4" footprint: leaves more counter space for prep or other components.
- Easy cleanup: a full-width drip tray and a removable stainless steel cover.

Sold separately
- Insulated jacket for Premium LTE power burners (BLZ-PB-IJ), required when the island is combustible
- Built-in power burner cover (PBBICV)
- Stainless island vent panel (BLZ-ISLAND-VENT), for island venting
- Roll-out trash / propane tank drawer (BLZ-TRLP-DRW-H), to keep a propane cylinder out of the island cavity
- 20 lb propane cylinder (propane models)
Installation planning
- Cut-out: 14" W x 19-1/2" D x 8" H. The burner rests on the lip of its frame, so the opening must not be larger than the frame. With the insulated jacket (BLZ-PB-IJ), frame the opening to the jacket's 16-1/2" W x 20-1/2" D x 8-3/4" H cut-out instead.
- Build into a non-combustible island, or use the insulated jacket when the island is combustible. Your local fire marshal or building authority makes the final call on what counts as non-combustible.
- Clearances: at least 16" from combustible material at the sides and back; if the burner is recessed, the 16" applies above the countertop. Do not install under overhead construction, an overhang or an awning.
- Outdoors only, never indoors, in a garage or an enclosed area. Vent the island cavity: propane is heavier than air and needs cross-ventilation low in the island, natural gas rises and needs it high. A propane cylinder inside the island needs a plenum wall, or use a propane tank drawer.
- Propane: one 20 lb cylinder at most, with an overfill prevention device, kept upright and outdoors. Connect the 3/8" flare hose to the brass coupling with a 3/4" wrench and no pipe sealant on flared fittings. Natural gas: a flex connector at least 1/2" in diameter to the regulator at the rear right corner, with an accessible shut-off valve supplied by the installer.
- Electrical: a 15-amp breaker with GFI protection for the light transformer; the appliance must be grounded by a qualified technician, and any extension cord must be outdoor-rated and rated at least as high as the appliance.
- Fuel conversion is done only by a licensed gas professional: remove the grate, the heat ring (two Phillips screws) and the rear cotter pin, lift out the burner and swap the orifice with a 7 mm socket without overtightening, then convert the regulator. Leak-test every joint with soapy water before use and after any connection or service; never use a flame.
Lighting and care: Remove the top cover and stand back, push the knob in and turn it counterclockwise to HIGH, and listen for the igniter click; if a ring does not light within 5 seconds, turn it off and wait 5 minutes with the cover off before trying again. Flames should be mostly blue: open the air shutter if they burn yellow, and close it slightly if they lift off the burner. Clear the burner ports and tubes of debris and insect nests before each use. Once cool, switch off the transformer breaker, clean the drip tray in hot soapy water after each use, brush the cooking rack with a stainless bristle brush, polish the stainless with the grain using a non-metallic pad, and let it dry before replacing the cover.
