Cooktop Notes for This Area
Separate cooktops appear here mainly in kitchens that have been rebuilt. A West Springfield colonial or a Lake Braddock house might now have a gas cooktop in a new island or an induction top over a drawer stack, with the oven moved to a wall cabinet. The gas line or 240-volt circuit for that cooktop was usually extended during the remodel, and those extensions are part of what we look at when something stops working.
Sorting out ignition, flame and element failures
For a gas cooktop, we begin by seating the burner caps and clearing the ports, then check the igniter for a strong spark and the wiring for damage from spills. Burners that click nonstop usually have moisture in a switch or a failing spark module. Low or lifting flames lead us to the orifice, regulator and supply pressure. Radiant electric tops get each element and its limiter measured for continuity, and the infinite switch tested under load. On induction, we confirm the cookware is magnetic, check the cooling fan, read stored fault codes and then test the coil and power board for the zone that has stopped.
Island cooktops and downdraft vents
Island cooktops in remodeled Burke and Springfield kitchens often pair with a downdraft vent ducted under the floor. A weak fan or a grease-blocked duct leaves smoke in the room. Tell us if your cooktop has a downdraft, and where its gas shutoff or breaker is located. Downdraft blowers mounted remotely in a crawl space or lower level may also need to be reached during the repair.

Still have a question?

It should not be. Liquid can seep through the break onto live parts, and heating cycles tend to lengthen the fracture. Turn the cooktop off at the breaker and arrange a repair. In many cases the glass top can be replaced without changing the elements or controls.
