Maytag Cooktop Gas Conv Kit Parts

The LP Bake and Broil Orifice Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas ranges and ovens. It is a kit containing specially-sized orifices that control gas flow to the bake and broil burners. This allows for optimal gas-air mixture and fuel efficiency specific to liquefied petroleum (LP) gas systems.

Causes of needing a replacement kit include worn or damaged orifices that alter proper gas flow and burner performance over time.

Symptoms include:

• Slow or uneven heating from one or multiple burners
• Burners that create hot or cool spots on cookware
• Ineffective or soft flames that impact cooking results
• Higher appliance operation costs due to inefficient fuel usage

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

Note: Oven orifice kit with Bake orifice and "Male" Broil orifice. For an oven orifice kit with a "Female" Broil orifice, order part# W10859321. The Bake orifice is #56, Broil orifice is #100.

The LP Bake and Broil Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It is a kit containing everything needed to convert the oven from Natural gas to LP.

Causes of a bad bake/broil system can include cracks, leaks, or corrosion in gas lines that produce unsafe flames over time. Pilot lights may fail to light consistently.

Symptoms of failures include:

• Inability to ignite bake/broil burners
• Erratic or intermittent baking temperatures
• Uneven cooking due to improper burner positioning
• Strong gas or chemical smells from the oven

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

The LP Orifice Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas ranges. It contains a set of five orifices designed specifically for use with liquid propane (LP) gas. Note: For the oven orifices, on some models they are adjustable and some they are not. Refer to parts list for your model when oven orifices are needed. LP orifice kit includes 5 orifices.

Causes of a bad LP Orifice Kit may stem from incorrect orifice size for the specific LP gas supply, wear or damage to the orifices over time, or improper installation.

Symptoms of needing to replace the LP Orifice Kit can include:

• Uneven heating or incomplete combustion of the burners
• Yellow or flickering flames instead of a steady blue flame
• Reduced cooking performance or inefficient heating

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

The LP Gas Conversion Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances. This kit allows for the conversion of natural gas appliances to use liquid propane (LP) gas. It includes all necessary components, such as orifices and instructions, to ensure a safe and efficient conversion.

Over time or due to specific needs, you might need to convert your appliance from natural gas to LP gas. Causes for needing this conversion include moving to an area where only LP gas is available or preferring LP gas due to its efficiency and environmental benefits.

Symptoms indicating the need for a gas conversion kit include:

• Moving to a location that only supplies LP gas
• Changing energy preferences for better efficiency
• Appliances set up for natural gas needing adaptation to LP gas

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

The orifice spud is the fixed jet that meters gas to a burner. Replacing a worn, clogged, or incorrect spud helps restore proper flame size, cleaner combustion, and reliable ignition on your gas cooking appliance.

• Precisely meters gas flow to the burner through a fixed opening
• Helps produce a stable blue flame and consistent heat
• If clogged, damaged, or wrong size, can cause weak/yellow flames, uneven heating, delayed ignition, or burners not lighting
• Supports correct operation when matched to the specified fuel type and burner rating

• Shut off gas supply and power before servicing
• Match the spud to the exact burner position and fuel type specified in your model documentation
• Thread the spud into the orifice holder/manifold with a wrench; do not overtighten
• Restore gas, then leak-test connections and verify proper flame characteristics

This LP conversion kit adapts select gas cooking appliances to operate on liquid propane. Use it when installing a natural-gas model on an LP supply to ensure proper ignition, flame characteristics, and safe performance. What it does

• Converts a natural-gas appliance for use with LP/propane per the model's installation instructions
• Provides correctly sized LP components to achieve proper flame size and combustion
• Helps prevent issues such as yellow flames, sooting, and poor simmer control caused by incorrect gas type
• Required when installing where only propane is available; model-specific kit

• One LP conversion kit

• Conversion must be performed by a qualified gas technician; follow all local codes
• Shut off gas and electrical power and allow all components to cool before servicing
• Replace the specified parts and set the pressure regulator for LP; adjust low flames/air shutters as directed in the service/installation manual
• Leak-test all connections and apply conversion labels after completion; verify flame quality

This Orifice Spud precisely meters gas to a burner so you get a steady, properly sized flame. Replace a damaged, clogged, or incorrect spud to restore reliable ignition, clean flame color, and consistent heating.

• Threads into the burner's orifice holder/valve to control gas flow through a calibrated opening
• Helps maintain correct flame height and color for safe, efficient cooking
• Typical symptoms include irregular or yellow flames, weak or no flame, popping, or delayed ignition
• A clogged or worn spud can make simmer control difficult and lengthen cook times

• Shut off gas supply and power; allow the appliance to cool before service
• Remove grate, cap, and burner head (as applicable) to access the orifice; use the proper wrench or nut driver and avoid overtightening brass parts
• After reassembly, restore gas and check for leaks with soapy water; verify a steady blue flame and adjust air shutters only if directed by the manufacturer

For Use With LP

This orifice spud meters gas to a burner on your range or cooktop, setting proper flame size for efficient, even heating. Replacing a damaged or incorrect spud restores consistent burner performance and flame quality.

• Meters gas flow through the burner orifice to control flame height and shape
• Supports efficient combustion and consistent heat output
• Common fix for flames that are too high/low, yellow/sooty, or uneven
• Used when setting up or converting a model for the specified fuel type (LP or natural), per the position of each burner

• Shut off the gas supply and disconnect electrical power before servicing
• Remove the burner cap and head to access the spud; lift the cooktop or open the range top if required
• Remove/install with a properly sized wrench; do not overtighten. Apply thread sealant only if specified by the manufacturer
• Match each spud to the correct burner and fuel type per your model documentation; after reassembly, restore gas and leak-test with a soapy-water solution
