The Delta Heat DHSZ26KIT-B Sear Zone Kit is designed to replace the standard burner on the left side of a 26″ Delta Heat gas grill, adding high-temperature infrared cooking capability. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and ceramic, the burner delivers up to 20,000 BTUs of direct heat, supporting fast searing without moisture loss.
This kit allows users to achieve high-heat cooking performance typically found in commercial kitchens. The infrared burner creates a concentrated heat zone ideal for steaks, chops, and other proteins that benefit from quick surface caramelization. Installation is straightforward, and the materials are built to resist rust and corrosion in outdoor environments.

Fitment and Ordering Notes
-
DHSZ26KIT-B is the kit designated for the 26" grill. Do not confuse it with the separately listed DHSZ-KIT-B.

For an older grill, confirm the complete model and serial number before ordering; DHBQ26 alone does not identify its production generation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I leave the briquette tray above the infrared burner?
No. Delta Heat warns against placing a briquette tray over the sear burner because it blocks infrared heat and can damage the tray.
How should I care for the ceramic sear burner?
Keep excessive liquids away from the ceramic tiles. Once the grill has cooled, clean the protective screen and check for trapped debris. Do not soak the ceramic burner.
