Glass radiant cooktops in remodeled bungalows and block homes lose elements or the infinite switches that control them, so a burner stays on high or will not heat at all. Induction units, more common in newer condo towers, are sensitive to power surges and cooling-fan failures, and they show error codes when the electronics overheat. Gas cooktops have spark modules and igniters that click without lighting, often because spilled food or moisture has fouled the burner. Salt air near the bay corrodes igniter tips and the brass caps on gas burners.
Owner check: on gas, lift off the burner cap, wipe the igniter and make sure the cap sits flat. On glass, never cook on a cracked surface. Turn it off at the breaker and leave it off until it is repaired.
Gas, power and the visit
Most St. Pete cooktops are electric, but gas is in some homes. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas company. Cooktops in condos often need the panel opened from below, so tell us about building access when you book.
Before You Book: Cooktop Checks
Safe first steps for the most urgent cooktop problems, and when to leave it to a technician.
- Gas SmellSafety
- Do not look for the source. Get out of the house without operating any switch or appliance, and phone the gas utility or 911 after you are outside.
- Gas Valve FailureSafety
- Never open up or oil a gas valve yourself. If the cooktop's shutoff valve is safe to get to, close it, then call us.
- Burner Won't Turn OffSafety
- Cut power at the breaker on an electric cooktop, or close the gas shutoff valve on a gas model if it is safe to get to; keep the cooktop out of use until it is repaired.
- Gas Smell Without FlameSafety
- Turn the knob off only if it is within easy reach, and do not relight anything or operate switches. A strong or persistent odor means getting out of the house and phoning the gas utility or 911 once you are outside.
