My Viking stove's oven igniter glows but the oven won't light. Why?

That is the classic sign of a weak glow-bar igniter. It glows but doesn't draw enough current to open the gas valve. Replacing the igniter usually fixes it, and we test the valve to be sure.

We moved our gas stove to a Clover farmhouse on propane. Why are the flames so tall?

The stove likely still has natural gas orifices. Propane needs smaller orifices and a different regulator setting. Stop using it and have it converted properly.

Can you repair an older coil-top stove at our Clover home?

Yes. Coil elements, receptacles and switches are common parts and usually available. We check the condition and quote the repair first.

Viking Stoves: What We Check First

Most Viking stoves in local kitchens are freestanding all-gas pro ranges in 30, 36 or 48-inch widths, from the older Professional series and the newer 5 Series and 7 Series. On top are heavy sealed burners with spark ignition and cast grates. Below, the oven uses a gas bake burner lit by a hot-surface glow-bar igniter, and many models have a Gourmet-Glo infrared broiler at the top of the oven with its own igniter. Older stoves use a mechanical oven thermostat; newer ones use a sensor and electronic control.

The full explanation, including what you can safely check yourself and when repair beats replacement, is in our Viking stove repair guide.

Propane, natural gas and electric stoves

Clover has a mix: in-town homes may have natural gas, while farm properties outside town often run on propane or electric. A propane stove needs its orifices matched to the fuel; a stove moved from a natural gas home and not converted will burn with tall, yellow flames. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas supplier or 911.

Electric coil stoves in older Clover homes usually fail at the element, the receptacle or the infinite switch. These are ordinary parts, and repairing an older stove is often well worth it. Turn the stove off and let it cool, then reseat each coil firmly; a receptacle that looks scorched means that burner should stay off until it is replaced.

Lake Wylie kitchens and the visit

Stoves in the newer homes around the lake tend to be gas or glass-top electric. Common faults there are igniters that click without lighting, usually after a boil-over, and glass-top elements that stay cold. Clean and dry the burner caps and seat them properly before booking. On the visit, we test igniters, valves, switches and elements and give you the price before any work.
