Description

This surface burner valve regulates gas flow to a top burner on your gas range or cooktop. The simmer version enhances low-heat control so the flame adjusts smoothly from a steady simmer to a full boil. What it does:

• Regulates gas to the surface burner as you turn the knob, controlling flame size
• Simmer variant improves stable low-flame performance at lower settings
• Common failure symptoms: burner won't light though the igniter sparks, flame won't adjust or stays at one level
• Knob feels stiff/binds or the stem no longer aligns correctly with settings

What's included:

• 1 surface burner valve

Install notes:

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Remove the control knob and access the valve/manifold from the control panel or cooktop top
• Note the original valve's orientation for your burner position; transfer mounting hardware as needed and tighten all gas connections securely
• After reassembly, restore gas and check every joint for leaks with an approved leak-detection solution; verify proper flame and adjustment
