Is it safe to put a palapa over my BBQ?
Yes, when precautions are taken. One thing you can do to prevent accidental fire would be to purchase the fire retardant option during checkout. Many of our clients choose not to add this option due to the additional cost, but thatch is flammable and will ignite if a flame is applied to it. Purchasers are encouraged to take all necessary precautions to avoid fire. If you do not know the precautions that should be taken in your area contact your local fire marshal. Please be aware that treating the thatch with any products other than fire retardant may lead to the staining of your BBQ/Patio after rain.
