The Burner Orifice is an OEM part for Frigidaire cooktops and ranges. It is a critical component that controls the flow of gas to the burner, ensuring a consistent and stable flame for cooking. The orifice regulates the amount of gas released to the burner, which in turn affects the size and intensity of the flame.

Causes of a bad burner orifice can include food debris or grease build-up, corrosion from prolonged exposure to gas, or physical damage from cleaning or handling.

Symptoms of a bad burner orifice include:

• Uneven or irregular flame
• Burner not igniting
• Weak or yellow flame
• Gas smell near the burner

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Burner Orifice is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire gas ranges and cooktops. It controls the mixture of gas and air delivered to each burner element.  

Symptoms of a faulty orifice can include:

• Inconsistent or unpredictable burner flame heights 
• Yellow flames that create excess soot or carbon buildup
• Potential risk of flashback into gas lines

Causes may involve gradual damage from normal usage, such as cracks developing. Improper cleaning can deposit residue that changes flame characteristics as well.

This OEM Frigidaire replacement restores balanced gas flow regulation. Compatible with ranges from Electrolux, Gibson, and select Kenmore models.

This burner restores proper flame distribution and ignition performance in your gas cooking appliance, helping you achieve steady, even heat for reliable boiling, simmering, and searing. What it does:
