The causes of daily malfunctions in gas stoves and corresponding maintenance methods

2023-11-25

If I have time on weekends, I definitely want to use my own hands to cook some good dishes and entertain family and friends.

A Gas stove is one of the essential appliances in the kitchen. It plays an important role in family life and is a necessary tool for cooking food. As it is a cooking tool, it is inevitable that malfunctions will always occur. The gas stove manufacturer said the same thing - make it yourself. Meanwhile, the editor has recently learned about the causes of daily malfunctions in gas stoves and corresponding maintenance methods. Of course, good things should be shared with you?

1. Ignition failure

Failure to open the valve in front of the stove will result in ignition failure. Before ignition, first check if the valve in front of the furnace is open. The editor reminds you that after replacing the connecting hose of the gas stove, temporary ignition failure may occur due to air mixing inside the pipe. After multiple ignition attempts, the air in the tube can be successfully ignited.

For users who use electric pulse ignition, the main reasons for ignition failure are:
(1) Insufficient battery voltage. Typically, the lifespan of a battery is six months to one year. The battery should be replaced in a timely manner;
(2) High voltage output line punctures or ruptures, causing leakage. Replacing with a new line can eliminate the fault;

(3) The electrode needle cannot be ignited due to excessive scaling and weak discharge, so it should be cleaned regularly to maintain its cleanliness.

2. What is tempering? Why does the gas stove flash back?
Backfire means that the flame burns inside the burner, even to the valve, and is usually accompanied by "chichi" and "quick" combustion sounds. Flashback may have two possible reasons:
(1) The fireproof hole is blocked. Due to the presence of varying degrees of impurities (such as sulfides) in gas, gas stoves will be used for a long time, and dust will deposit in the fire holes of the fire hood, causing the fire holes to become smaller. If gusts of wind or spilled water are compressed, flames will fall. Backward and then backfire to avoid this situation, please use it for a period of time to clean the fire hole in a timely manner.

(2) If the burner is not tightly covered or the air inlet of the damper is large, it is easy to cause backfire. Therefore, the correct handling method for tempering is: ① observe whether the fire holes of kitchen and bathroom appliances in Guangdong Province are blocked; ② Check if the fireproof cover is in place; ③ Adjust the air damper.

3. What is a fire? What if there is a fire?
Excessive air pressure or intake can lead to a fire, causing flames to fall from the fire hood and burn.

When a fire occurs, the air volume at the damper should be adjusted correctly; Then the pressure reducing valve should be checked. If it is natural gas or coal based natural gas, it is caused by excessive pressure in the pipeline and needs to be reported to the gas supply company.

4. Leakage or odor
Starting from the following aspects:
One. If the hose is broken or connected incorrectly, please replace it with a new hose and secure it;
B. The sealing element at the valve joint is aging, replace the sealing ring;
C. If the valve fails for a long time, please replace it with a new valve; Otherwise, please replace the valve with a new one.
D. Burner does not ignite, troubleshoot and reignite;
E. Ignite or extinguish the flame, remove the source of the fire (solve it according to previous methods);
F. Universal joint leakage, repair or replace the universal joint;
G. Welding is not firm and there are water bubbles. Replace or re weld the tee;

H. The nozzle is not inserted into the spray tube, please reinstall the nozzle;

5. The flame is yellow
The yellow flame is caused by insufficient combustion. At this point, the yellow flame problem can be solved by adjusting the air damper to increase the intake volume.
