Kitchenaid Range / Cooktop / Oven Regulator Or Pressure Regulator

This gas pressure regulator controls and stabilizes incoming fuel supply to the appliance's burner system, helping ensure consistent flames and reliable operation. Replace it if pressure is unstable or burners/oven won't heat or ignite correctly. What it does:

• Reduces household gas supply to the appliance-rated pressure for proper burner performance
• Maintains steady pressure as burner demand changes to prevent over/under-firing
• Helps prevent yellow, lifting, or flickering flames and sooting caused by pressure issues

• 1 gas pressure regulator

• Shut off gas supply and disconnect power before servicing
• Observe flow-direction arrow on the regulator body; install between supply and appliance manifold
• Use approved gas-rated thread sealant on threaded connections; do not overtighten
• After installation, check all joints for leaks with a non-corrosive leak-detection solution; correct any leaks before use

This gas pressure regulator stabilizes incoming supply to your range or oven, delivering consistent burner flames. Replacing a failed regulator can restore proper heat output and reliable ignition across surface, bake, and broil burners.

• Regulates household gas supply to the appliance manifold for stable burner operation
• Helps maintain consistent flame height and heat in the oven and on the cooktop
• Protects downstream gas components from overpressure
• Failure symptoms include weak flames on all burners, oven or broiler not heating, or repeated clicking with no ignition

• Disconnect power, shut off gas supply, and allow the appliance to cool before servicing
• Observe flow-direction/orientation arrows and connect inlet/outlet ports correctly
• Apply an approved gas-rated thread sealant to threaded joints; avoid overtightening
• After installation, leak-test all connections with an approved solution—never use an open flame

The Regulator is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas ranges. It regulates the flow of gas from the supply line to the burners, ensuring safe and efficient operation of your range. It maintains a consistent gas pressure, allowing for accurate and controlled heat distribution during cooking.

A bad pressure regulator can occur due to wear and tear, clogging, or damage to the internal components. If you notice symptoms such as uneven flame, difficulty in igniting the burners, or gas leaks, it may be time to replace the pressure regulator.

Symptoms of a bad gas pressure regulator include:

• Uneven flame
• Difficulty in igniting burners
• Gas leaks

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