Beschreibung
The Sunstone SUNJK insulated jacket is the heat barrier Sunstone pairs with its current Ruby built-in grills. Sunstone offers it in three widths, each matched to specific grills: the 33″ SUNJK33 for the Ruby 30″ RUBY3B, the 40″ SUNJK40 for the Ruby 36″ RUBY4B and RUBY4BIR, and the 45″ SUNJK45 for the Ruby 42″ RUBY5BIR and Emerald 42″ EMCHDZ42. The grill drops into the jacket’s sleeve and rests on its top edge, and the jacket sits in a larger island opening than the grill would need on its own, so plan the cutout around the jacket before the island is framed.
Key Features
- Matched by Sunstone to Ruby grills — Sunstone lists each size against named grills: SUNJK33 with RUBY3B, SUNJK40 with RUBY4B and RUBY4BIR, SUNJK45 with RUBY5BIR and EMCHDZ42.
- Heat barrier for nearby combustibles — Sunstone’s Ruby manual names a grill jacket as one of the heat barriers to use when combustible material is within 24″ of the grill.
- Grill rests on the jacket rim — the grill sits on the jacket’s top edge, not on its base, leaving space below the drip pan for air flow. Sunstone notes the jacket raises the grill 1″ above the counter.
- Removable side access panels — left and right panels come off for gas and electrical access.
- Removable vent panel — the sleeve is 10″ high with the vent panel in place, or up to 12″ high with it removed.
- Peg legs and upgrades — fasten-in peg legs let the jacket and grill stand on any surface; Sunstone also offers a post mount upgrade (SUNJKPOST) and jacket wings (SUNJKWING).

These SUNJK jackets replace Sunstone’s earlier SUN3BJK, SUN4BJK and SUN5BJK drawer-style jackets, which were sized for Sunstone’s older 28″, 34″ and 42″ grills and are no longer sold. Sunstone lists only the SUNJK jackets for its Ruby grills.
Installation Note
The jacket changes the hole you cut in the island. A Ruby 36″ RUBY4B on its own needs a 33-1/2″ x 22″ x 10″ cutout; with the SUNJK40 the island opening becomes 38-3/4″ x 24-1/4″ x 13″, and the grill drops into the jacket’s 34″ x 22″ sleeve. Frame to the jacket cutout in the table above, not to the grill’s cutout.
Sunstone’s Ruby Series manual asks for 24″ of clearance from combustible materials in any direction of the grill. If any combustible material is within that 24″, the manual calls for a heat barrier such as a grill jacket, or non-combustible material such as brick, cement board or metal. The manual also states that the 24″ clearance under the countertop to combustible construction can be modified by use of an insulated jacket. Follow your grill’s installation manual and local code, and have a licensed professional connect the gas. Our built-in grill cutout dimensions page lists grill cutouts by brand, and do you need an insulating grill liner? explains when a jacket is worth it.
