Range / Cooktop / Oven Guard, Shield, Barrier Parts

This lower oven heat shield is a factory-style replacement panel that protects internal components from direct bake-broil heat and helps direct oven airflow for consistent cooking. Restores heat protection and prevents heat-related damage to nearby parts. What it does:

• Shields wiring, insulation and under-oven components from direct heat and hot spots
• Helps control internal oven heat flow for more even cooking
• Reduces risk of scorched or warped parts caused by excessive localized heat
• Common symptom: visible heat damage, burnt insulation, or a missing/warped shield

• Disconnect power (and gas supply if applicable) and allow the oven to fully cool before beginning work
• Handle carefully; edges may be sharp—wear gloves and eye protection
• Basic hand tools usually required; follow for exact fastener locations
• If corrosion or adjacent component damage is present, inspect and replace affected parts as needed

This heat shield is a sheet-metal protector that blocks and redirects oven or broiler heat to protect nearby components and cabinet surfaces. It helps prevent heat damage and keeps the oven's internal parts functioning safely. What it does:

• Shields wiring, insulation, and adjacent parts from direct broil/upper-oven heat
• Helps maintain proper airflow around oven components to reduce hot spots
• Reduces risk of heat-related component failure and discoloration of surrounding surfaces
• Commonly used behind the broil element or on the oven cavity wall where heat exposure is highest

• One oven heat shield

• Disconnect power (or unplug) and shut off gas supply before servicing
• Wear gloves and eye protection; sheet metal edges can be sharp
• Remove oven racks and any panels indicated to access the shield
• Reinstall fasteners snugly; do not overtighten. Test oven function after reassembly

This lower heat shield protects the range/oven's lower cabinet and nearby components from high temperatures produced during operation. It restores proper heat deflection to help prevent heat damage and maintain safe appliance performance. What it does:

• Deflects and disperses heat away from the lower cabinet and surrounding parts.
• Helps prevent discoloration, warping, or heat-related damage to nearby components.
• Reduces risk of heat transfer that can cause degraded insulation or wiring issues.
• Restores proper clearance and airflow under the oven for safer operation.

• One lower heat shield as shown

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before servicing the appliance.
• Handle carefully—metal edges may be sharp; use gloves to avoid cuts.
• Reinstall with the original fasteners and verify proper fit and clearance.

This lower heat shield protects the appliance's cabinet and nearby components from excess heat, helping maintain safe operating temperatures and prevent heat-related damage. It fits into the heater assembly area as the original lower protective panel. What it does:

• Deflects and dissipates heat away from sensitive parts to reduce risk of heat damage
• Helps prevent melted insulation or discoloration of nearby surfaces
• Can reduce heat transfer that may contribute to high-surface temperatures or odors
• Restores the appliance's factory heat containment for safer operation

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) and allow the appliance to fully cool before servicing
• Use proper hand tools and retain all mounting hardware; follow OEM instructions for placement
• Inspect surrounding components and insulation; replace any damaged parts when reinstalling the shield
