Burner flame height adjustment

I would check the gas pressure at the meter reg .It sounds like you are saying too much gas to burners

Use a manometer to insure lp gas pressure is correct. The regulator for the stove may need adjusting. The air mixture adjustment may not be correct for PL as well.

Most burners have an adjustment under the knob. Pull off the knob and use a slender flathead screwdriver. Turn burner down to low, insert screwdriver into knob shaft and rotate internal screw until flame is at "simmer" height. Can adjust each burner separately this way.

remove the knob, the center shaft is hollow, slide in a small blade screw driver to adjust the flame cheers

Hello,
It would seem like reasonable thing to do.However the adjustment is typically for the low setting so you can adjust just the small flame just enough to simmer a pot without the flame going out from being so low its susuptable to going out on the low setting, also it so you can adjust the flame smaller so on low it isnt too high,causing it will boil when you intend to only simmer a dish your cooking. A question;is it all burners and have they always been that way?

Normally, I would say know, if they are exact replacements. However, the only way to know is after you light the burners and check the flame colors and heights. For propane gas burners, the screw on each burner should be all the way in. For Natural Gas, about 2/3rd's of the way in.

If you tank has bee turned OFF during repair. Open the tank valve VERY, VERY SLOWLY aSlow Motion, slow) until the valve is fully open. Then light the burner farthest from the tank first and turn it to high. Does the flame height and color look correct? If so, light the remaining burners the same way. Do all the flame heights and colors look correct? If so, you're ready to start grilling with your new burners.
If not, turn the burners OFF and Let them cool completely, before making any adjustments.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know and Happy grilling!!

Generally, whether it's a Vent-free or Vented fireplace, lower than normal flame height is caused by 3 things: Low Gas pressure; The air shutter control valve is clogged or needs adjusting; The burners need cleaning.

I haven't seen a unit in the past 10 years, that has a flame height adjustment, other the flame height control knob, that's part of the control assembly. Have you checked that, to see what height it's turned to low?

Perhaps, if I knew who the manufacturer was and the model number, I could be of more help to you.

Every one of these ranges that I have seen with the oval style burner on them have a smaller flame then the normal round burners. And there is very little difference between the low and high settings. It sounds like what you are experiencing is normal. What the GE repairman was adjusting is called the "simmer stop". There is a small flat head screw inside the burner stem. By turning this screw you can adjust the size of the burner on the low position of the burner knob. This should be adjusted to where the burner still stays on when the knob is at the lowest setting. I do not think that you need the burner repaired. From my experience they are all like that.

there are two considerations for burner height. 1) the gas adjustment screw on the knob and 2) the gas-air mixture to the burner. establish a flame and adjust the screw for a standing flame at the burner. adjust the gas-air ratio orifice so that the flame has no yellow tips.

remove the burners and adjust the air ration with the slide at the bottom of the burner tube
