Can my natural gas stove run on propane?

Many can, but they need a conversion with the correct orifices and regulator setting. The technician can check whether a stove has been converted properly.

My coil burner only works some of the time. What is wrong?

A loose or burned receptacle or a failing switch is a common cause. The technician tests the circuit and replaces the part that has failed.

Coil, Glass and Propane Stoves

Older homes near downtown and on rural lots often have freestanding coil-top electric stoves or propane stoves. Coil burners burn out, and their receptacles scorch from spills. A burner stuck on high usually means a failed infinite switch. A stove moved from natural gas to propane without conversion can burn tall and sooty. Newer homes usually have glass tops, where one radiant element or switch may fail.

In older wiring, a burned terminal block behind the stove can make burners work one day and not the next.

Owner Checks

Once both are cool, swap a dead coil burner with a working one of the same size. If it heats in the new spot, the receptacle or switch is the problem. On gas or propane, make sure each cap is seated. Do not use a cracked glass top, and if you smell gas, leave the house. The technician tests burners, switches and wiring and gives a price before any work.

Before You Book: Stove Checks

Safe first steps for the most urgent stove problems, and when to leave it to a technician.

Gas Odor from StoveSafety: Get out of the house without operating switches or lighting anything, then phone the gas utility or 911 from outdoors.
Power Cord or Terminal Block IssueSafety: Leave the terminal cover closed. Burning odors or scorch marks behind the stove mean switching off the breaker and calling us.
Burning Smell from Storage DrawerSafety: Shut the oven off, clear out the drawer, and remove debris after it cools; if smoke continues, turn off the breaker.
Not Igniting: Make sure the stove is plugged in and its breaker has not tripped; any gas odor means stopping, getting out of the house, and phoning the gas utility or 911 from outdoors.

Symptoms, causes and repair-or-replace advice for every type of stove are in our complete stove repair guide.
