TEC Commercial Grill Parts for Replacement

TEC (Thermal Engineering Corporation) is a recognized manufacturer of high-performance commercial grilling equipment, specializing in infrared technology. TEC grills are engineered with patented infrared burners that convert 100% of gas input into radiant heat, delivering intense, even cooking temperatures ranging from low searing to ultra-high heat with minimal heat loss. Key components, including infrared burners, control valves, thermocouples, ceramic glass panels, and electronic ignition systems, ensure consistent operation, rapid temperature response, and reliable ignition under demanding conditions. Common signs of failure in TEC grilling systems include ignition delays, uneven heat zones, flame inconsistency, or physical damage to burners or glass panels. These symptoms may result from burner obstructions, worn igniters, thermocouple faults, or gas regulation issues. Troubleshooting involves diagnosing heat output across zones, inspecting ignition systems, and replacing damaged parts such as infrared burners, control valves, ignition modules, or ceramic panels using genuine TEC components. Preventive maintenance, including burner cleaning, inspection of gas connections, and system calibration, is essential for maintaining high thermal efficiency and long-term grill performance.

At PartsFe UK, a complete range of genuine TEC replacement parts is available, including infrared burners, ceramic glass panels, igniters, control valves, regulators, and temperature sensors.

FAQs

What is TEC infrared cooking?

It uses ceramic infrared burners to cook food with radiant heat instead of convection, sealing in juices and reducing flare-ups.

Are TEC grills good for low-and-slow cooking?

Yes, TEC grills offer excellent temperature control, making them great for both high-heat searing and low-temp smoking or roasting.

Why is my grill generating excessive smoke but not cooking food properly?

Excessive smoke can be a sign of food residue buildup on the grates or burner. Clean both thoroughly to ensure proper airflow. Also, check the fat tray for grease buildup, as it can cause unwanted smoke during grilling.

What replacement parts are available for TEC Grills?

Common parts include burners, grates, igniters, control knobs, thermometers, drip trays, and covers.

Is it normal for the infrared burner on my TEC grill to have a yellow flame?

A yellow flame suggests incomplete combustion, often caused by debris blocking the burner or a gas flow issue. Clean the burner and check the gas pressure. Since a blue flame is ideal, yellow flames should be fixed promptly.

Why does my grill cook unevenly, with some spots hotter than others, and how can I resolve this?

Uneven heat can result from a dirty or damaged burner. Clean or replace the burner if necessary, and ensure the grates are properly positioned. If using a propane tank, ensure the regulator isn’t causing a flow issue.
