Method for adjust gas pressure of gas stove

Gas stove is a very common kitchen appliance, but the use of gas stove needs to pay attention to the adjustment of gas pressure. Too high or too low air pressure will affect the cooking effect, and there are also potential safety hazards. Here are several ways to adjust the gas pressure of gas stoves.

1. Observe the flame size.

First of all, we can judge whether the gas pressure is appropriate by observing the size of the flame. If the flame is too large, irregular flame will appear around the stove, indicating that the gas pressure is too high and needs to be adjusted. If the flame is too small and even hisses, it means that the gas pressure is too low and needs to be adjusted. The correct flame size should be a stable blue flame.

2. Adjust the air throat

The gas throat of the gas stove will also affect the flame size and need to be adjusted. Find the adjusting screw at the top of the air valve. Turn counterclockwise to reduce the air pressure, and turn clockwise to increase the air pressure. However, it should be noted that the adjusting screw can only be rotated properly, and cannot be over-adjusted, so as not to cause safety accidents.

3. Replace the air valve

If none of the above methods can solve the flame problem, it may be that the air valve is faulty. At this time, it is necessary to replace the air valve. If you are unable to replace the gas valve, please be sure to ask a professional to replace it.

In short, when using a gas stove, we should always pay attention to the size of the flame and take timely measures to adjust the gas pressure to ensure safety and cooking effect.
