Commercial Oven Ignitors

Gas ovens require ignitors to guarantee safety and the best results when cooking. These ignitors are usually hot surface ignitors that become hot to ignite the gas in a controlled manner. Hot surface ignitors are particularly preferred due to the simplicity of use as compared to other ignition systems. Contemporary ignitors are designed to be manufactured from enhanced materials that provide enhanced durability and performance. They are not affected by thermal shock and corrosion, making them durable and efficient in their performance. If an gas oven ignitor is not working properly, food takes longer to cook or cooks unevenly, or there is a buildup of gas, which is dangerous. That is why it is important to have a well-functioning ignitor in order to have your gas oven working optimally. Whether you’re baking a cake, roasting vegetables, or cooking a gourmet meal, a good working ignitor is important for a seamless cooking process. At PartsFe UK, we have a variety of oven ignitors and accessories, including Blodgett and Vulcan Hart brands.

FAQs

What happens when the oven igniter fails?

When an oven igniter fails, the gas inside the oven does not ignite, preventing it from heating up. This can cause delayed cooking or the inability to operate the oven until the igniter is changed.

Do ovens contain two igniters?

Yes, some ovens have two igniters, one for the bake burner and another for the broil burner. This enables independent ignition of both heating components.
