If you notice that your the appliance is getting hard to light or
that the flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the time to
check and clean the venturi’s.
In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been
known to create “flashback” problems. The spiders spin webs, build
nests and lay eggs in the the appliance’s venturi tube(s) obstructing
the flow of gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the
venturi behind the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it
can damage your the appliance and even cause injury.
To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and
venturi assembly should be removed from the the appliance and
cleaned before use whenever the the appliance has been idle for an
extended period.
