Where Can I Place My Alfa Oven?

Where should you place your Alfa oven? Learn ideal locations, safety distances, ventilation requirements, and outdoor vs. indoor installation rules.

1. Installation Environment: Indoor or Outdoor?

Outdoor 🌳

  • All wood-fired and gas ovens are designed for outdoor use on stable, non-flammable surfaces.
  • Avoid excessively windy areas or enclosed spaces that could affect combustion.

Indoor 🏠

  • Only models certified for indoor use can be installed in enclosed spaces.
  • The Urbe Electric Oven is suitable for indoor use without requiring a chimney.
  • In North America, some UL-certified Alfa ovens can be installed indoors, following ventilation and safety regulations.

Urbe 🌆 (Outdoor Use)

  • The Urbe oven can also be used outdoors, but it must be protected from the elements and stored indoors when not in use.
  • Do not leave Urbe exposed to extreme weather, as moisture and environmental factors can affect its performance.
    📌 Always check local regulations before proceeding with indoor installation.

2. Safety Distances to Follow

For proper ventilation and safety, maintain these minimum clearance distances:

📏 Distance from walls or other appliances: At least 20 cm
📏 Around the chimney: At least 50 cm
📏 Above the oven (ventilation space): At least 1 meter

⚠️ If installing under a pergola or a covered area, the chimney must extend beyond the structure to ensure proper airflow.

 


3. Protection Against Wind & Weather

🌬️ Avoid highly windy areas, as strong currents can affect the flame and temperature consistency.
⛈️ Use a weatherproof cover to protect your oven from rain, snow, or humidity, especially in exposed locations.

 


4. Recommended Surface for Placement

Heat-resistant materials (cement, stainless steel, refractory stone).
Strong enough to support the oven's weight (check the technical specs for your model).
Avoid wooden or flammable surfaces.

 


5. Placement Ideas Based on Available Space

🔹 Compact Ovens (1 Pizza) → Perfect for balconies, small terraces, or patios. Ideal for outdoor use in limited spaces.

🔹 Larger Ovens (2-5 Pizzas) → Great for outdoor cooking areas, creating a social gathering space for pizza nights.

🔹 Outdoor Kitchen Ovens → Can be integrated into a dedicated outdoor kitchen, serving as the centerpiece of your backyard cooking area.

 


6. Versatile Placement Solutions

🔹 Wheeled Bases → Make the oven movable, allowing you to easily reposition or store it when not in use.
🔹 Cooking Stations → A fully equipped outdoor cooking station, with worktops, utensil storage, and all necessary accessories.
