Adjusting simmer flame on a gas stove

12 years ago

When I brought my GE profile range four years ago, my simmer flame will cut off if set to low. So now I have a little time on my hands and done a little research and came across this and boy did I strike it rich.!!!

Just follow the instructions and start wowing yourselves and a service call is not required! Just get the skinniest flat head screwdriver and a dremel tool to file/grind shaft to fit and adjust all burner screws and be happy like me!

Here is a link that might be useful: How to adjust burners lowest flame by a turn of a screw!

That is good info for those with that type of stove and adjustment.
Fortunately our low simmer is excellent already.

I have it on right now as a matter of fact simmering a pot of Sketti sauce for about another 5 hours.
So nice being able to leave a pot simmering for hours without any fear of burning anything.

If I'm in the market for a new range, I will take a good look at that unit!

Thanks for posting!
