How to Assemble a Pizza Oven Kit on the Terrace
One of the most frequently asked questions is about the possibilities of getting the desired pizza oven into the garden or onto the terrace. There are seemingly simple solutions like removing a door or similar actions. But the most exciting are the extraordinary ideas with which our customers implement their pizza oven and wood-fired oven projects.
Outdoor Kitchen in the Air
Here is a rather elaborate example: Our customer is renewing his terrace and, in the course of this, is building an outdoor kitchen with a Valoriani FVR wood-fired oven onto his terrace. To ensure everything fits together and looks perfect, he takes the opportunity and orders a mobile crane that lifts the heavy material over his roof and places it correctly on the terrace. Thus, a custom-made countertop and the base for the oven seemingly fly weightlessly to their correct spot.
Of course, the kit doesn't require a crane, as it is delivered by us via a freight service and can be unpacked in its components and carried into the garden for further transport. Still, we want to show you these pictures because sometimes customer images serve as inspiration for others.
Additional Transport Ideas for Pizza Ovens and Wood-Fired Ovens:
- remove a door or dismantle the garden gate
- build a ramp with planks
- use a wheelbarrow as a means of transport
- ask friendly neighbors for help
- bribe the freight service guy ;)
The imagination knows no limits. And we are happy to help with ideas and our experience to help make your pizza oven project a reality.

The heating time to 300 degrees takes about 30 minutes. Two pizzas can be baked at the same time in a few minutes. The exhaust gases are led forward to the controllable flue. The advantages of the innovative technology: The entire baking surface can be used and it can be baked continuously. The Valoriani Indirect can be placed both indoors and outdoors. Installation inside and outside: Inside, the Valoriani Indirect can be integrated into the elements of a kitchen as a supplement to the stove and mounted next to the fireplace or in the party room. Outside, he finds his place next to the barbecue, on the terrace or in the garden. But then it must be protected from the weather. As a mounting kit or pre-assembled: The Valoriani Indirect is equipped with thermometer, ash box, smoke connection and hardwood handles. Ideal is a 3-layer insulation with ceramic fiber of about 8 cm, to ensure a slow cooling and a long life. After that, it can be plastered or walled up. It is important that no moisture can get into the insulation. Take a look at our sample pictures. The kit Valoriani Indirect is a special fire concrete, which is poured into molds. Schamottseteine and clay granules provide excellent thermal conductivity and insulation. The stove is reworked by hand during assembly.

If the soil temperature is too high, we recommend placing the embers in the back of the glow chamber about 20 minutes before the pizza stump .Also delicious is the cooking and cooking of vegetables, pasta or meat in this wood oven. This is possible in commercial casserole dishes at any time and they get crispy and juicy dishes. We wish you a good appetite! A small baking instructions model "Valoriani Indirect ": Ideal is to heat the oven at least 1 to 1.5 hours to about 280-300 degrees. If they want to bake directly on the pizza stone made of fireclay, ideally after firing up the embers should be pushed back to the last third, so that the floor temperature is not too hot. If they bake on trays, this is not necessary, as these somewhat reduce the temperature emanating from the pizza stone. You should add one or two small pieces of wood every 15-20 minutes so that the pizza oven settles at a minimum of 250 degrees. Once the pizza is inserted, the oven should be closed again to keep the heat in the oven. Thin pizzas and not too many toppings are ideal. Then you achieve a delicious and crispy pizza directly on the bottom in about 3-5 minutes of baking. If they want to bake bread in the second round, remove the embers completely and leave the oven open for 10 minutes so that some heat escapes. Then put the bread in and close the oven for 30-40 minutes. Closing the smoke control is also ideal.
