Life saver ❤. like my dad

[@Windycityequip]

rustie42 You can tell if the burner is getting too much air if the flames are "lazy" or tend to lift off of the burner (in the industry we call this "dancing flames"). On the flip-side, if the burners are not getting enough air, they will be bright orange and will generate a lot of carbon buildup (looks like chimney soot). Hope this helps!! Thanks for watching!

Windy City Restaurant Equipment Repair Thank you! I'm getting massive amounts of soot from 3 burners on my stove. Time to adjust!

[@76biggdogg]

I never knew it was suppose to be a blue flame... mine in my camper had always been yellow And all my flaps were completely closed😱...I adjusted them and walaa!! They all burn blue and hotter than a 45 magnum! Thanks

[@Windycityequip]

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

[@rayacosta5070]

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO WAS VERY HELPFULL

[@Windycityequip]

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching!

[@richardgraham8568]

Fairly good video, but it would have been nice to show what happens to the flame when the air shutter is closed entirely then slowly opened all the way then slowly closed to show the sweet spot.

[@thanghuynh2283]

Thank you sir.

[@CurryKitchens]

Very nice video man..can u tell me what should I do with single stock pot stove!!! Thanx

[@Windycityequip]

Single stocks should have a similar adjustment (unless it's missing). Otherwise, if it's just a fixed opening you'll have to adjust the gas pressure to match the oxygen instead of the other way around. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!

Flames are coming out of my air shutter on my griddle. I have a vintage commercial range (Montague). Any suggestions?

[@AznHalfie1]

Is it dangerous to continue using a stove that doesn't get enough air flow?

[@Windycityequip]

Not initially, but it is destructive to the operation and the unit. If it runs that way long enough, carbon will build and could cause blockages. Always try to get a proper air fuel ratio. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!

Hey man, thanks for the vdo. In mi church we have a stove that has that proble. I already open the valves and the problem is not solve. What it can be, do I have to clean very well the burners inside?

[@Windycityequip]

Josian - Yes, it sounds to me like your burners are dirty and have restricted airflow. Clean the burner holes AND INSIDE of the burner head and neck to resolve your issue. Check out our video on "Burner Maintenance" to see how. Good Luck and thanks for watching!

[@deejayfloor]

Dear. I have a 6 burner range. And out of 6 one of them when turned on it makes whistle sound. How do I fix this issue?

[@richardgraham8568]

Sometimes a whistle sound or hum is from having an air shutter too open, you may notice the flame lifting off the burner. Close the shutter till the flame stays on the burner, turn a little more till you get a yellow tip and then open till the yellow tip disappears. If on Propane between the yellow disappearing and the flame starting to lift is a sweet spot in case you get different purities with different bottles.

[@slojinPA]

Hey man...is this page still active? I have a question...

[@bassilito1]

Why is the flame on

[@mikepeck1089]

I have an Imperial commercial stove that I just converted to LP with new orifices and regulator. The only way I can get blue flame is with the shutters closed completely, but this causes sooting on the pans. If I open the shutters much at all, I get dirty, orange flames. Any suggestions?

[@John.Johnson]

Any news? Having the same problem here as well

[@freetipvoy]

i know the orange flame is hotter than blue

[@Windycityequip]

That's actually a common misconception. The hottest part of the flame is the blue part. Then as the flame cools, it turns yellow & orange. Thanks for watching!

[@Bob4213]

How do you tell if there's too much air flow?

[@anthonyolivares4608]

There will be a gap between the burner hole and the flame

[@aimkrew]

What about the stove
