Coyote C3PB Power Burner Install Guide
The C3PB is a 60,000 BTU built-in power burner — a single high-output burner designed for wok cooking, fish fries, and canning stock. Install is a simpler cutout than a full grill, but the BTU load and heat intensity above the burner want specific clearance thinking.

What you need
- Jigsaw for the cutout
- Gas line sized for 60,000 BTU
- Level
- Soap-and-water leak test
Step by step
Confirm the LP (C3PBLP) or NG (C3PBNG) variant matches your supply
The two models are NOT field-convertible at install time. If your supply is NG and you ordered LP, return it — don't improvise.
Cut the opening to the manual's cutout spec
The cutout is rectangular and smaller than a grill's. The mounting lip rests on the counter the same way.
Run a gas line sized for 60,000 BTU
A smaller line drops supply pressure and makes the burner run yellow-flamed and incomplete. If your main gas line is already serving a grill, calculate combined draw.
Soap-test the gas connection and light
First light should be a quick, blue, even flame across the burner ring. Yellow flame = incomplete combustion = upstream pressure issue.
Burn off for 15 minutes before cooking
Standard factory-residue burn. Expect light smoke.
Common mistakes
- Installing under a low-hanging shelf or pergola beam. The upward heat plume is intense. Low overhangs scorch.
- Using a flexible hose rated for a BBQ grill only. 60,000 BTU wants a rated hose. Check the BTU rating on the hose label — many are 40,000 BTU max.
Hands-on tips
- Mount a dedicated hood vent above the power burner if it lives inside a covered outdoor kitchen. The heat and smoke accumulate fast.
- Pre-fit a wok ring if you'll be cooking round-bottomed woks. The burner grate is flat.
Questions people ask
Can I run a stockpot on the C3PB?
Yes — that's a primary use case. Confirm the pot is below the burner grate's rated weight (about 50 lb full).
Does the C3PB come with its own regulator?
Yes, model-specific. The LP variant arrives with the POL fitting; NG arrives with the correct inlet pressure regulator.
