Kitchenaid Dryer Burner & Related Parts

The Dryer Gas Valve Coil Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers, as well as Kenmore and Samsung dryers. It is a set of coils that control the flow of gas fuel to the burner. The gas valve regulates the precise amount of gas needed to properly combust and generate heat for drying clothes. 

Causes of a bad gas valve coil can be wear and tear from regular use, lime or mineral buildup on the coils over time, or physical damage to the coils.

Symptoms of a bad gas valve coil kit include:

• Inconsistent or incomplete drying  
• Slow or intermittent drying
• Burning smell from the gas dryer
• Improper burner ignition or non-ignition

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The LP Conversion Kit is an OEM component for Whirlpool and KitchenAid gas dryers. It allows conversion from natural gas to liquid propane fuel operation. Over time in gas-powered dryers, improper gas/air mixture causes part wear like weakened burner components. This is risky if overlooked but converting to an alternative fuel safely remedies. 

Causes relate to unavoidable deterioration from gas combustion stresses. Conversion using this kit prevents hazardous gas leaks or explosions.

Symptoms involve:

• Diminished or unsafe heat levels from burners
• Gas leaks which exacerbate safety risks over time

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Whirlpool LP gas conversion kit is an OEM replacement part responsible for allowing the conversion of a natural gas-powered dryer to operate on LP (liquid propane) gas. This kit contains the orifice, leak limiter, and an instruction sheet to guide the conversion process. Once the conversion kit is installed, it alters the fuel source of the dryer, allowing it to burn LP gas instead of natural gas. This conversion is necessary when a home or installation site lacks access to natural gas and relies on LP gas as the fuel source for heating appliances

Causes for needing an LP gas conversion kit include relocating the appliance to a home with LP gas, or preferring LP gas over natural gas for cooking efficiency or availability. The conversion process involves changing the orifices and adjusting the gas pressure to suit LP gas requirements.

Symptoms that indicate a need for conversion or issues with the current setup include:

• Improper or uneven flame on the burners
• Difficulty in lighting the burners
• Burners not operating at full power
• Gas smell indicating possible leaks or incorrect gas type

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Natural Gas Limiter is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. Located where the gas supply connects, it regulates safe flow levels to fuel burners during heating cycles. Precise control prevents over-firing issues.

Symptoms of a faulty limiter include:

• Dryer not achieving proper temperatures or taking too long
• Yellow flames indicating abnormal gas-to-air ratios
• Fault codes showing problems with gas valve readings

Causes can range from debris accumulation reducing gas flow to mechanical wear of linkage components. This replacement restores optimized operation.

This OEM replacement part is compatible with select KitchenAid and Maytag brand models.

The Natural Gas Orifice is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas dryers. Installed within the dryer burner assembly, it regulates gas fuel flow into the burner.

Common causes relate to natural deposits obstructing the small gas port, as well wear inducing intermittent ignition of flames during many years of laundering cycles.

Symptoms of a failed orifice include:

• Slow or inefficient drying times and extended cycles
• Uneven or incomplete drying of loads
• Changes in flame appearance like higher than normal yellow tips

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore models.

The Natural Gas Orifice is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This part regulates the flow of natural gas to the burner, ensuring efficient and safe combustion for proper drying performance.

Causes of a bad natural gas orifice can include buildup of debris or lint, wear and tear over time, or damage from improper handling during maintenance.

Symptoms of a bad dryer natural gas orifice include:

• The dryer not heating up
• Inconsistent or weak flame in the burner
• Longer drying times than usual
• Unusual gas odors or hissing sounds

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This burner tube channels the gas-air mixture to the burner and includes an adjustable air shutter to set proper combustion. Replacing a damaged assembly helps restore reliable ignition, stable flame, and consistent heating performance.

• Directs the fuel/air mixture from the gas valve to the burner port
• Integrated adjustable shutter regulates primary air for proper flame
• Helps maintain efficient heat output and reliable burner operation
• Failure can present as no or intermittent heat, burner that lights then goes out, yellow/lazy flame, or soot

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply; allow the appliance to cool before servicing
• Access the burner compartment and transfer any clips/brackets from the original tube
• Note the current shutter position; after installation, adjust for a steady blue flame
• After reassembly, leak-test gas connections with a soap solution and verify burner operation

This genuine OEM replacement part is a burner and gas valve assembly for dryers. The burner and gas valve assembly is a complete assembly that contains the burner that distributes the gas in a way that creates an even flame allowing for heat to be distributed properly to perform the dryer's essential function. If the dryer is no longer drying clothes effectively or heating properly, then it might be time for it to be replaced. Luckily repairing a gas valve assembly is a relatively simple job.To replace the burner and gas valve assembly, begin by shutting off power to the appliance. Next, pull the dryer away from the wall to gain access to the back panel. Remove the back panel and locate the burner and gas valve assembly. Remove the mounting screws that hold it in place. After removing the screws use both hands to pull and release the old burner assembly. Set it off to the side and proceed to install the new one by refastening the screws that hold it in place.This replacement part is compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Sears/Kenmore brand washers.

This replacement gas valve controls gas flow to the burner in a gas dryer, enabling safe ignition and consistent heat. When it fails, the burner may not light and loads can stay damp; replacing it restores proper drying performance.

• Opens and closes gas flow to the burner when heat is called for
• Shuts off gas when the cycle ends or heating is not active
• Common symptoms: dryer runs but has no heat or the burner never ignites
• May present as the ignitor glowing or clicking repeatedly without flame, or intermittent heat

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Work in a ventilated area and allow the dryer and burner to cool
• Use only gas-rated thread sealant on threaded connections
• After installation, turn on gas and check all joints for leaks with a soap-and-water solution

This gas surface burner head distributes fuel through its ports to create an even, reliable flame on your cooktop. Replace a clogged, damaged, or warped head to restore consistent ignition and proper heat on the affected burner.
