El Torito Grill
A Blast that killed one man and injured five others caused by an exploding boiler. Pressure built up inside the boiler and the only way to relieve it was to explode. It shot the boiler through the roof like a missile.

El Torito Grill• The explosion occurred to the El Torito
located in Newport Beach, California in Fashion Island Shopping Center. The El Torito was located across an access road from the shopping center. The explosion demolished the restaurant’s equipment room knocked down a wall to an adjoining wall to the men’s locker room and killed Antonio De Santiago, a bartender who was changing his cloths at the time.

El Torito Grill
• The building inspector said the building permit was issued 21 year ago. He suspected that the problem may have been twofold: a plugged pressure relief valve and a malfunction in the unit designed to shut off the gas supply when the boiler got too hot.

Why Does A Client Need “Off Premises” Coverages
• Most insurance policies require that damage occur at a premises described.
• Most insurance policies do not automatically cover “off premises” but they may have sub-limits included or optional coverages activated on the Declarations Page.

![Page 63: Equipment Breakdown, Spoilage, Off Premises](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816726550346895ddbb888/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com
Who Needs EB Coverage?
