Whether it is a big restaurant or a small streetside cafe, if the gas oven stops working for any reason, it can quickly disrupt operations. So, problems in a commercial gas oven can really hamper the functioning of any food establishment. This is why regular maintenance and repair is an important step here. The upkeep includes watching out for the following common problems that come up when repairing commercial gas ovens: 1. Pilot light does not stay on While repairing a commercial gas oven, the thermostat is sometimes not positioned correctly. This is a common problem that can develop due to an oversight interrupting the functioning of a pilot light. Here, the thermostat component is possibly not connected to the flame when the pilot is lit. So, it is not hot enough to open up the safety valve. In most cases, simply adjusting the thermostat will resolve the issue. However, at times, the component could be damaged and broken and may need a replacement. 2. Oven is not hot enough Sometimes, a gas oven does not heat up sufficiently after repairs or maintenance. If, even after turning up the temperature, the oven doesn’t get hot enough, the problem could lie in the calibration of the thermostat.
