Description

This burner valve controls gas flow to a cooktop or range burner so the burner lights and adjusts correctly. Replacing a faulty valve restores reliable ignition and steady flame control for safe cooking. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to a single surface or oven burner for low-to-high flame control
• Helps maintain a steady flame; a worn valve can cause weak, uneven, or no flame
• Can prevent burners from staying lit or from igniting at all when failing
• Works with the range's control knob and gas manifold to deliver the correct fuel flow

What's included:

• One burner valve

Install notes:

• Turn off the gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any repair
• Only connect and test gas fittings with a certified gas-safe method; check for leaks after installation
• Tighten connections to OEM torque specs and replace any damaged seals or gaskets
