How to Properly Clean Gas Stove and Oven
Is your kitchen powered by propane? If not, well it should be! Cooking indoors with propane gas is not only energy efficient and easy on the ol’ wallet, but offers a high quality cooking experience preferred by homeowners and chefs all over the world. It’s important to keep your gas powered stove and oven in mint condition to get the most out of your days in the kitchen. Here are some simple tips to keep your gas oven looking oh so fresh and so clean.
When you’re not cooking with a propane stove or oven….
- Safety first! Always make sure your gas oven or stove is turned off before cleaning.
- If you have sealed stovetop burners, there is no need to remove them to clean. Only a professional should do this! Sealed burners protect the burner box from encountering spills and food bits.
- Clean spills as soon as possible (once the surface has cooled) to avoid a more difficult, hardened mess later on. Use warm, soapy water and a plastic scouring pad to clean effectively. Remove burner grates and clean them off in the sink.
- Take care when cleaning around the gas ports on the burners. Remove debris using a small, straight object such as a toothpick.
- Got a pilot-less stove? When cleaning, don’t forget to clear the port and area below the igniter wire, because if left in place can keep the gas burner from lighting.
