WHATS INSIDE A GAS HOB, gas tutorial on what you will find inside a gas hob and see how it works

Derek shows us inside a gas hob and explains what you will find and how it works. This is a gas tutorial for trainee gas engineers and remember you must be gas safe registered to work on gas.

Thank you very much, I used your technique to clean the injector! for years my wife has been eating my head about getting it fixed. I thought it might have been easier to change my wife than the hob but thanks to you, I was wrong. Now I need a story to tell her, it was very difficult dearest, It took me all day.

[@tomkatgastraining]

Good luck with that 😂

[@HighHolyOne]

Appreciate the in-depth education in this video. Thanks!

[@mj0n4id36]

Cool video. One of the burners on my hob doesn’t spark. This video has nicely explained the reason and has given me a good understanding. Thanks Derek 👍🏻Really useful. Keep them coming. I’m catching up 🤓 Asian Jon. Training.

[@Burncash1510]

Love your vids keep them coming

[@naturelover_9211]

Nice video as always it's very helpful thank you.

[@JohnSalmon]

2:52 Surprised to see that top right gas pipe squeezed on the bend. Is that a method of restricting the gas flow to that particular burner?

[@मंगलविनायकवीडियो]

I am from 🇮🇳India best vidio

[@jakwalker7948]

Can an electrician/competent person work on the hob if not touching anything to do with the gas?

[@raul835]

Really appreciate these vids.. I've only qualified mid-January and all this helps to consolidate the learning/training we go through on MLP's and shows some things we weren't shown. Excellent.

[@darrenrobson2486]

Excellent video. Any tips for an ignitor that clicks and sometimes lights (1 in 100) even after I've cleaned and checked everything on your video and others? Is it a duff ignitor control thing? The oven is a Canon Chichester and is about 15 years old but in great condition otherwise.

[@sheilatrant-mccarthy2727]

does a new gas hob have to be hard wired or can the ignition be put on a plug?, been watching a few of your videos as i need a new one, i found the videos interesting though i dont meddle with gas just like knowing how my stuff works.

[@antonybuckley2645]

Another brilliant video Derek. Was never shown inside an hob on any of my training

[@georgebuller1914]

10:37 - If I had a Quid for every carburettor jet I've cleaned out in a similar way..... :-) BUT, us 'ruffty-tuffty' vehicle mechanics used to SUCK the crap out of the jet (apparently, you get more 'ooomph' rather than blowing!) and then the job was a good 'un! No cans of 'namby-pamby' compressed air 'when I were a lad!' ;-) Of course, Petrol - the good old 4 star at least - is apt to taste better than stale cooking fat!... ;-)

[@reegz942]

thanks m8

[@udghkimnbvc]

Great video! I have a question. I was recently melting chocolate for a cake, and spilt it over a burner, and now set chocolate has stopped gas coming through the injector. Can i get hot water and a toothbrush to clean this without taking it apart? Again great vid, thanks!

[@NordicExchangeTrading]

What is an injector? An injector is an electromechanical system in a car that is involved in the formation of air/fuel mixture. This term refers to a fuel injector that injects fuel, but also refers to a fuel system with multiple atomizers. The injector works on all types of fuel, thanks to which it is used on diesel, gasoline and gasoline engines. In the case of gasoline and gas equipment, the fuel system will be identical (thanks to this, it is possible to install LPG equipment on them to combine air and gas). The principle for gas stoves is the injector, an air feed to get the right flame identical, only it works under a certain pressure that is mixed with the gas.

[@strider0106]

you forgot to mention why a Hob may go out when its turned to simmer. Common problem on Hobs

[@brendanconnolly8341]

That's a genuinely great video. Your videos where you get stuck in to actual appliances are brilliant. Thanks for putting in the time Derek

[@BlackMambaKO]

I have beki hiz 64120 sx and i took all the bolts and nut off and the upper part doesn't want to lift up. What do i need to take off to get it off?

[@sailajarani4114]

Fantastic tutorial...it would be great if you could mention/ spell out the components and their price too

[@hakimnaamany1366]

Nice video-Well done-More to be explained on the requirement of thermocouples due to safety features

[@jameshunt1516]

Talking about removing knobs and nuts... 😉😳

[@jelnet]

My igniter still fires even if the hob is unplugged, why's that?

[@paulrossiter9567]

Brilliant video....just wondering if the gas tap was letting by and readings were found at the burner with with knob in the off position....would greasing the barrel with graphite grease cure this problem also along with making it easier to turn if stiff. Thanks in advance 👏👏👏 Lovin your vids 😄

[@tomkatgastraining]

paul rossiter it’s the first thing you would do to try and resolve the issue. 👍🏻

[@yasinhussain8723]

Excellent explanation on this gas hob very impressed on the way you have explained it I love all the videos that I have watched so far I am a new trainee keep it up please.

[@arncj18]

never understood why they always market these gas cooktops performance in kW in the description without mentioning "equivalent" in there, since it doesn't run on electricity except the spark/ igniter.

[@tomkatgastraining]

I guess you are from the USA ? There are 3412 BTUs in a kw to help you convert it

Why my same new gas hob leaving stut and yellow flames?

[@abuwaleed1191]

Dear, Can you explain where is Air mixer in this Gas hob, as min is giving very high carbon, I could not find Air m mixer to adjust.

[@tomkatgastraining]

Yeh it’s called giving the hob a good clean. There is no adjustment just cleaning

[@tommyblackman7119]

Thumbs up and no non constructive comments

[@cafercakmak6236]

ı haven't seen gas hob this model it's too old model to learn.

[@aussiebrian5520]

I take it he turned the gas off before working on it (not shown)

[@Gr8Believer]

I'm following your procedure, at 11:38 when you removed the 2 screws for the valve switch it looks like there's space for an O ring. Mine didnt have O rings, did yours have?

[@Bradwellify]

Thomas Bradwell Thanks Derek

[@g7mks383]

Not quite correct. You have to be a competent person you can work on your own items. But not for any money making purpose.

[@tomkatgastraining]

I think you will find that no longer exists because to comply with the regulations you must be gas safe registered to be classed as competent to work on gas. So even if you do work on gas for no money you are still breaking regulations.

[@riveness]

Thanks. Bought a house with a diplomat gas hob and was getting a small amount of yellow intermittent licks in flame (never had gas) but apart from cleaning the top distributors, I didn't want to take top off (call in gas engineer obvs). No need after seeing this.

[@supermick83]

Great video. I have bought an old mobile home which I've moved into. I tested the gas water heater which was only tested a few months ago and that works fine. The problem is with the gas cooker. I turned one of the knobs and the gas started coming out but when I turned the knob back to off position, the gas kept coming out. I had to run out and turn off the valve on the propane tank and haven't touched it since after. After looking at your video, would I be correct in saying that the graphite grease may completely dry and preventing the valve from shutting off or am I barking up the wrong tree? I have asked 4 local registered gas installers to have a look but they said it'll be months before they get a chance to call out. I am badly in need of the cooker. Thanks I appreciate your feedback and loved the video. Great detail 👍

Hi I’ve got an issue with my Gas Hob, when cleaning it one day a lot of water got into the igniter switch and I believe that it shorted out so I’ve replaced the igniter switch, and I still don’t get any ignition spark. I haven’t been able to check the plug which may be a blown fuse but I don’t know where the power outlet is in my kitchen for the hob any ideas or suggestions?

[@Gr8Believer]

Great vid. Learned a lot. Mine doesnt connect to power to generate a spark. There must be a battery that can be replaced?

[@jameshunt1516]

Gas appliances seem so old fashioned, but they are cheaper to run than electric stoves and they heat things up faster as well. But if it doesn't light you can smell gas. :/

[@mark.e.p]

This is exactly what I am looking for. I have a problem with the ignition, sometimes it's on permanently and sometimes it doesn't come on at all? Each of the gas knobs has it's own spark I don't have one common one.

[@BetaboyBuffet]

Thank you very much for sharing this info. The injector was clogged and I cleaned it the way you described it and ‘presto’ !

[@jimmalcolm2958]

What could cause small gas leak when the valve is turned off? only one out of four leaks and causes smell ( as detected by leakage detector).
