The Vesuvio, a Naples-style fully assembled pizza oven, is our signature home pizza oven. It features a beautifully hand tiled enclosure that will hold up in any climate. Made from the Casa home pizza oven kit, these ovens feature fast heat up times and the best heat retention available in the industry. This helps you bake the perfect pizza, hearth bread, roasts and grilled meats.

The Vesuvio pizza ovens are available as gas and wood fired pizza ovens for outdoor kitchens. They are UL certified for indoor use as a wood fired pizza oven.

The Vesuvio core technologies:

  • 2” oven dome produced using a proprietary 142 pcf density, 8,230 psi strength refractory material with poly-fibers for additional strength not found in brick or clay ovens.  All manufactured in Salinas, CA factory using a two-sided, vibrated mold casting process.
  • NSF4 certified 2″ oven floor is constructed using large 18”x18”x2” ultra-premium (2,700psi compressed and 2,650ºF kiln-fired) baking tiles with Cordierite — for superior thermal shock resistance and durability, and for great pizza baking.
  • Ultra-premium insulation, both in quality and thickness, for outstanding heat retention. Each pizza oven includes a minimum of 3” of high-tech ceramic blanket dome insulation and 2” of ceramic board floor insulation — eliminating the need for old-fashioned and inefficient vermiculite or Perlite-based insulating concrete.
  • An interlocking dome design with a mono-block vent — and with fewer, tighter seams, offers outstanding heat retention, cooking performance, and durability.
  • The gas-fired version provides a pizza baking experience that accurately replicates a true wood fire.

Center Vent Design

The center vent design has been used widely over the years in both pizza and bread ovens. A center vent creates a strong draw, helping pull hot air out of the oven. Additionally, because the hot air is pulled directly across the top of the oven dome, this ventilation design can help evenly heat the oven and help the dome maintain high pizza baking temperatures. The center vent design is used in the Naples-style pizza ovens, where they often call the vent a hood, or second dome.
