Check to see if the gas line to the burner is clogged. Is there a pilot light? If so, and the pilot light isnt on, it indicates a plugged line. If there is no pilot light (electric lighter] it could still be a plugged line. Use a wire coat hanger to try to clean the line out...but do it very gently!!

Flame on our new Samsung gas stove too high... simmer is still boiling everything

It is generally not possible to reduce the flow of gas to the burners on a stove top. The burners on a gas stove are designed to operate at a specific flow rate, and reducing the flow of gas to the burners could affect their performance. If you are concerned about the amount of gas being used by your stove top burners, there are a few things you can try:
  1. Make sure the burners are properly adjusted so that the flame is the correct size for the pan you are using.
  2. Use a pan with a flat bottom that is the same size as the burner. This will help ensure that the burner is being used efficiently.
  3. Turn the burner off as soon as the pan is hot enough. This will help conserve gas and reduce your energy usage.
If you are still concerned about the amount of gas being used by your stove top burners, you may want to consider switching to an electric stove or using a gas stove with a more efficient design.

Smeg gas hob, 2 burners have very low flame

If two burners on your Smeg SR275XGH2 gas hob have a very low flame, it may indicate a problem with the burners or the gas supply. Here are some steps you can try to fix the problem:
  1. Check the gas supply: Make sure that the gas supply to the hob is properly connected and turned on. If the gas supply is off or disconnected, the burners may not function properly.
  2. Check the burners: Check the burners for any visible damage or blockages that may be causing the low flame. Make sure the burners are clean and free of any debris or foreign objects.
  3. Check the gas pressure: Make sure that the gas pressure to the hob is set correctly. If the gas pressure is too low, the burners may not function properly.
  4. Check the connection: Make sure that the connection between the hob and the gas supply is secure and not damaged. If the connection is damaged, it may cause the burners to function improperly.
  5. Contact technical support: If the above steps do not help, you may need to contact Smeg or a technical support team for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose the problem and provide you with the necessary support.
It is also a good idea to check the documentation or manual that came with the hob for any troubleshooting tips or recommendations.

How to Troubleshoot a Gas Range Oven That Won't Heat
By Kefa Olang, eHow Contributor
Although gas range oven may prove useful for cooking and baking, they may fail to ignite if they aren't properly maintained and set up. Lighting a gas range often involves simply turning a knob; however, blockages from food particles and debris caught in the burners, improper burner cap installation and gas supply are common problems that interfere with your gas range oven's performance. A few troubleshooting guidelines may solve these problems safely.

      Inspect the small vertical holes on the side of your burners for dirt, food and debris. The gas won't ignite if they are clogged. Scrape dirt, debris and food from the vertical holes using a pointy object such as a toothpick or paperclip.

      Reinstall the burner caps properly. If they are tilted or wobbly, the gas may not ignite. Install the caps on the right burners. Some burners are smaller than others, so match the caps to the appropriate burners.

      Move the burner knob to the "Lite" position and wait for the gas to ignite. If it ignites, rotate the knob to your desired setting. If it doesn't ignite, contact a qualified appliance technician.

2 burners wont ignite

Hello there:
A burner doesn't work The most common problem for gas surface burners is that they get gas but don't light. This is generally caused by dirt or grease splatters on the burner itself. Residential-grade range/stove burners are round and have small holes around their perimeter to allow gas to flow out and create a round flame. The gas coming from these holes is often ignited by a small vertical row of holes on the side of the burner. If these vertical holes are clogged or obstructed, the gas can't ignite. The solution is to clean the burners thoroughly. Use a toothpick to clear the small vertical holes, then allow the burner to dry completely and try lighting it again. If it doesn't light immediately, either repeat the procedure or call a qualified appliance repair technician.

Oven has small explosion igniting and going off. says tj

A few years back I helped a neighbor with this same problem in a forced air, gas fired, "horizontal" furnace in his attic.

After having him cycle the thermostat a couple dozen times while I watched through the opening in the side of the furnace, I finally figured out what was happening.

First, there were about 6 cast iron burners [about 14 inches long with two rows of gas holes along the length]. These burners were parallel to each other and oriented perpendicular to the long axis of the furnace.

The gas was fed to the ends of the burners with a pipe manifold. The standing pilot light was at the center between burners 3 and 4. Due to the spacing distance between the burners, the pilot light was too far from even burners 3 and 4, the flame could not "jump" to ignite them, or any of the other burners. The manufacturer had installed a thin sheet metal "tent" which ran from the gas entrance end of burner 1 to burner 6, and was about 2 inches above the burner, AND the pilot light.

The standing pilot was on all the time. When the gas control valve turned on, gas began to come out of all the burners at the same time. Naturally it came out of the gas supply manifold ends of all the burners.

The "tent" captured that gas coming from the burners and "filled" up to over the pilot light which ignited the gas at that point, and the flame would propagate along the tent to ignite the gas coming out of all of the burners.

In my neighbors case, the tent had somehow become dislodged so that it did not cover all of the burner ends. For those burners which it did cover [including the pilot light] it caused the burners to light properly.

For those burners who's ends were not covered, and who's gas could not be captured, they would NOT ignite simultaneously with the others.

As these burners WERE feeding gas into the combustion chamber, the gas "envelope" would spread until it reached the nearest flame ignition source, at which time the entire "bubble" of gas would ignite with a minor boom [actually a low energy explosion]. Flame would momentarily shoot out of the burner chamber opening, and from that point the furnace would operate normally until the next restart cycle.

Although there could be several causes, I suspect that the symptoms you describe are the result of DELAYED IGNITION of some or all of the main burners.

IF this is the problem, then the solution is to clean all the burners [including the burner outlet holes in the ignition ends of the burners], clean out the burner compartment, AND properly adjust the orientation of whatever system [you have to evaluate how it works from analysis of YOUR furnace] your furnace has to ensure all burners ignite as close to the same time as possible.

When operating properly, the ignition should be a smooth transition, burner by burner, from the pilot to the farthest burners. In other words. the ignition will "flow" from the pilot outward to each adjacent burner until the farthermost ends ignite last. This usually doesn't take more than one or two seconds at the most.

Unless you are an experienced handyman, and understand this analysis and instructions, I strongly suggest that you engage the services of a professional furnace technician.

Kenmore gas range

hi Clogged burners are a very common problem with gas ranges because foods spilled on the burners block the gas ports and prevent ignition. On some gas ranges you can remove the top ring of the burner to expose the ports. Here's how to clean a burner:

Step 1: Turn off the power supply, both gas and electric, to the range. Then remove the burner.

Step 2: Soak the burner in a solution of mild household detergent and water. Clean it with a soft cloth.

Step 3: Clear the gas ports with a pin or needle, rinse the burner, and let it dry. Caution: Do not use a toothpick or matchstick to clean the gas ports. If the tip of the wood gets stuck in the burner ports, it could cause a serious blockage.

Step 4: When the burner is completely dry, replace it, and turn on the power and the gas supply.
