Whirlpool Gas Conv Kit Parts

This orifice holder secures the burner orifice to the gas manifold so the burner stays aligned and maintains proper gas flow. It helps keep burner assembly components positioned for consistent ignition and flame performance. What it does:

• Holds the burner orifice in place on the manifold to prevent misalignment
• Keeps the orifice correctly positioned for steady gas flow and stable flames
• Can address symptoms like uneven flame, intermittent ignition, or poor burner performance when the orifice is loose
• Works as a direct replacement part for the factory-mounted orifice support

• Turn off gas supply and electrical power before servicing any gas appliance
• Inspect surrounding gaskets and fittings; replace damaged parts as needed
• Tighten to manufacturer torque specs and check for gas leaks after installation

This orifice is the small metal fitting that meters gas to a burner, helping maintain a consistent flame for reliable cooking and oven performance. It replaces a clogged or damaged metering fitting to restore proper burner operation. What it does:

• Controls and meters gas flow to a specific burner for correct flame size
• Helps maintain a steady, even flame for consistent cooking or baking
• A clogged or damaged orifice can cause weak, uneven, or failed ignition
• Worn or damaged fittings may cause gas flow issues that affect burner performance

• Turn off the appliance and shut off the gas supply before beginning work
• Replace only with the exact orifice specified for your appliance
• Tighten securely with the proper wrench and check connections for leaks using a soap-and-water solution

Orifice meters gas flow to a cooktop or range burner, helping maintain correct flame size and reliable ignition. Replacing a clogged or damaged orifice restores consistent heat and more stable burner performance. What it does:

• Meters and controls the gas flow to a single burner so the flame burns at the proper height.
• Helps maintain steady ignition and even heating across the burner.
• Common symptoms indicating replacement: weak or uneven flames, difficulty lighting, or burners that won't stay lit.
• Clogged by debris or corroded over time, causing restricted gas flow.

• Turn off the appliance power and shut off the gas supply before attempting any service.
• Verify the correct orifice size and gas type for your appliance using the OEM diagram; use proper seals and avoid overtightening.
• If you smell gas, stop immediately, ventilate the area.
