Features & benefits of the BBQ cover Ligorio top, Ibrido top

Perfect fit for Ligorio top and Ibrido top models

This BBQ cover has been precisely manufactured according to the exact specifications of the Boretti Ligorio top and Ibrido top barbecues. The tailored fit ensures that every protrusion, button and handle of your barbecue is optimally protected without the cover being too tight or too loose. This specific design prevents water from pooling on the cover and provides a sleek, professional appearance in your garden.

Weather-resistant and water-repellent material

The high-quality polyester material is specially treated with a water-repellent coating that effectively keeps out rain, snow and hail. The sturdy fabric composition protects not only against moisture, but also against dust, leaves and bird droppings that could otherwise damage your barbecue. The breathable material prevents condensation, so no moisture remains under the cover that could cause rust on the cast iron parts.

UV-resistant properties for long-lasting protection

Dutch summers can be surprisingly sunny, and UV radiation is one of the biggest enemies of unprotected barbecues and accessories. This BBQ cover is therefore equipped with UV-resistant properties that prevent discolouration and material weakening from sunlight. Even after years in the open air, the cover retains its sturdiness and protective function, so your Boretti barbecue looks like new season after season.

User-friendly with handy fastening systems

The cover is equipped with practical drawstrings or Velcro fastening systems at the base, with which you can securely attach the cover to the barbecue. This prevents the cover from blowing away or shifting in strong wind, which could otherwise allow water and dirt to access your barbecue. The simple fastening makes putting on and removing the cover a breeze, even after a long grilling session when you want to tidy up quickly.

Applications

Protection during rainy seasons

Dutch autumn and winter often bring prolonged rainy periods that can be disastrous for unprotected barbecues. With this BBQ cover, your Boretti Ligorio top or Ibrido top stays completely dry, even during the wettest periods. The water-repellent properties ensure that rainwater simply slides off the cover, whilst the breathable material prevents condensation from building up around sensitive parts such as the cast iron grates and burners.

Sun protection during summer months

Even in summer, when your barbecue is used most, protection is essential. Between grilling sessions, the cover protects your barbecue against the drying effect of intense sunlight that can cause plastic parts to discolour and weaken. The UV-resistant coating blocks the intensity of the sun, so buttons, thermometers and other delicate parts of your Boretti stay beautiful and functional longer.

Winter storage and seasonal protection

When the barbecuing season is over and temperatures drop, this cover provides optimal protection during the winter months. Whether your barbecue remains on the patio or is stored in the shed, the cover prevents dust build-up and protects against temperature fluctuations. This is especially important for maintaining the quality of the cast iron grates that are characteristic of Boretti barbecues and which can be susceptible to rust if stored incorrectly.

Assembly & use

Using the BBQ cover Ligorio top, Ibrido top is surprisingly simple and requires no special assembly work. Make sure your barbecue is completely cooled before putting the cover on – this is crucial for safety and prevents damage to the cover material. Simply pull the cover over the barbecue, starting from the top, and ensure that all protruding parts such as side shelves and handles are completely covered. Then use the drawstrings or Velcro fastenings at the base to secure the cover firmly.

For optimal maintenance of both the cover and your barbecue, it is recommended to clean the barbecue regularly before putting the cover on. Remove fat residue and dirt from the cast iron grates and the outside, so they don't bake on under the cover. The cover itself can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soapy water if lightly soiled. For stubborn stains, the cover can often simply be hand washed – always check the care label for this. Let the cover dry completely before placing it back over the barbecue to prevent mould growth.

Outside the grilling season, it is sensible not only to use the cover, but also to prepare your barbecue well for long-term storage. Thoroughly clean the cast iron grates and rub them with a thin layer of oil to prevent rust. Have gas bottle connections checked and preferably disconnect the gas bottle during extended storage. The cover then protects against dust and moisture, but it is still advisable to check at least once a month that no moisture has accumulated under the cover, especially after periods of heavy rain or snow.

Frequently asked questions

Does this cover fit other Boretti models too?

This cover is specifically designed for the Boretti Ligorio top and Ibrido top models. Due to the precise fit, we recommend using this specific cover only for these models. For other Boretti barbecues, other covers are available that fit perfectly with those models. Boender Outdoor has the complete range of Boretti covers for all models.

Can I use the cover when my barbecue has just been switched off?

No, this is absolutely not recommended. Always wait until the barbecue is completely cooled before putting the cover on. Putting the cover on a warm barbecue can damage the material through melting or warping, and also poses a fire hazard. Wait at least an hour after last use, or longer if intensive use has made the barbecue very hot.

Is the cover resistant to storms and high winds?

The cover is equipped with fastening systems that keep it securely in place in normal to moderate wind. However, in very severe storms, it is advisable to take extra precautions, such as placing the barbecue in a more sheltered location or adding extra weight to the cover. The durable material quality ensures that the cover itself does not tear or get damaged easily, even in harsh weather conditions.

How best do I clean the BBQ cover?

For light soiling, simply wipe the cover with a damp sponge and some mild washing-up liquid. For stubborn stains, you can treat them with a soft brush and lukewarm water. Many Boretti covers can be hand washed in lukewarm water – always check the label for specific instructions. Always let the cover dry completely in the air before using it again, preferably hanging so the water can drain away properly.

Does the cover also protect against pests?

The snug fit and sturdy material composition make it difficult for insects and small pests to get under the cover. The cover therefore provides a good barrier against spiders, wasps and other insects that might otherwise build nests in the burners or other cavities of your barbecue. For optimal protection, it is important that the cover fits tightly and is correctly secured with the drawstrings.
