Maintaining a Gas Stove

Regular cleaning is vital for maintaining a gas stove. Dust and debris can build up on the unit, reducing its ability to properly heat your home and potentially leading to safety hazards. Here are some recommendations from Energysavers:

Prior to cleaning, ensure the stove is completely turned off and wait for it to cool completely before cleaning, particularly if you’ve been using it recently.

Cleaning for Optimal Performance

Wipe down the exterior: Use a damp cloth to gently remove dust and dirt from the exterior surfaces of the heater. 

Vacuum the exterior vents: Use the brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to carefully remove any dust or debris that may be blocking the vents. Consult your user manual for the location of the vents on your specific heater model. 

Remember: Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on your gas heater, as these can damage the surface. Avoid using any flammable liquids or chemicals near your gas heater. Be sure to turn off the gas supply and shut off the heater completely before performing any maintenance or cleaning tasks.

Optimizing Your Gas Stove’s Performance

Gas stoves should be serviced annually by a professional to ensure optimal efficiency and safety. Consult the experts at Energysavers for your annual gas stove service. If not regularly serviced annually, users will experience diminished performance over time. 

At Energysavers, we check, clean, and test the pilot light. If you suspect internal components like the burner assembly need to be cleaned or potentially replaced, or if your heater hasn’t been serviced in a long time, then it’s a good idea to have it checked out by a certified professional.
