In order to eat healthy and be able to prepare our favorite food every day, we must have a reliable stove or range at home. We are often faced with the dilemma of which is better, an electric or a gas stove? Depending on your needs and especially the type of power supply you use in your kitchen, we recommend not changing the current power supply, because sometimes the inconvenience of changing is too great. Gas ovens are generally a little cheaper to run than electric ovens, the bills are also slightly different if you use the oven for an average of 3 hours a day. The main thing, of course, is regular maintenance after every cooking if you want to keep your appliance for a longer time. No matter how well you take care of your stove, one day it needs repair. As a professional stove repair company, we can to give you a solution to the problem and solve it asap.
If your oven is displaying any error codes, it is trying to tell you something. Of course, the first thing you should always do is find the power cord or braker and reset the unit. If the problem is not resolved, write down the error codes and call us for a consultation with a stove specialist.

If you have an oven problem, whatever it may be, we recommend that you call us and consult with an oven specialist. Electric ovens operate on 240 V where serious injury can occur if you are not familiar and attempt to repair it yourself. Be safe and let us help you get your appliance back to normal. Here are some of the most common stove problems we can fix:
· Oven won't heat up - when your oven won't heat up at all or takes forever to heat up, you most likely have a problem with igniter(gas stoves)for heating element(electric stoves).
· Oven temperature too high or low - ovens are equipped with temperature sensors that adjust the cooking temperature according to the selected settings, usually from a range (+/-25 °F). In some ranges, you can calibrate the temperature depending up or down. The other problem could be a bad control board or control thermostat depending on how your range works.
· Oven is not cooking evenly - There are several possible reasons why your oven may not be cooking your food evenly. The ignitor or heating element should be checked for continuity, bad temperature sensor, incorrect oven calibration or you just open the door too often.
· Oven door not closing or opening - the door must be removed and checked for damage, as well as the door hinges. In the meantime, you can't close the door, you may need to replace the rubber seal that is usually around the door.A missing or damaged hinge locking mechanism is also a possible problem. Some doors are really heavy, be careful, if you see a loose door, call for service immediately.
· Oven light not working - make sure the stove is on and the display is working fine. Remove the bulb slightly and test. If you still have a problem with the light, call repairman to check the wiring and lamp housing.
· Burners not working - always be careful when cleaning the burners or cooking, do not spill liquid on the spark ignitor. The ignition problem is very common, a wet or simply broken spark ignitor on the burner. Sometimes if all or some of your burners do not spark it could be a problem with the spark module.
Why is my gas stove not working? Most of the time the gas burner has trouble igniting because debris is blocking the flow of gas to the igniter. Also you could have the problem with specific parts such as fuse,heating element,themperature sensor,control board,safety valve or any other part.
Why is my stove not reaching temperature or not working properly? If your heating element or igniter does not light, you can do a visual inspection for cracks. The other problem could be a sensor, thermal fuse or a bad main board, but for that you need a professional repair guy.
Why is my stove not heating? Check the circuit breaker, turn it off for 5 minutes and turn it back on. The next step is to check the heating coil or igniter according to the type of oven. Also make sure the door seal is in place and the door is fully closed.
Why my stove flame is orange? Orange flames indicate improper gas flow, causing the flame to change color. Attention should be paid because it can signal an excess of carbon monoxide in the gas stream, something that is dangerous for any household.
Should I replace or repair my oven? First you need to consider how old your stove is and secondly how often it breaks down. Usually, if the repair does not exceed 50% of the cost of a new electrical or gas appliance, it is worth it. Before you make a decision, consult with our 737 appliance repair technicians to guide you in the right direction.
How long should an oven last? Although oven life varies, you can expect 12-15 years with proper maintenance. We do not recommend using a self-cleaning option, as the high temperature sometimes locks the door and burns the thermal fuses. The easiest way to keep your stove or range clean is to sponge up with oven cleaner after each use and let it dry.
From our experience, we can recommend that if you are not limited by the dimensions of your oven, you should choose the most common brands in US. We ensure that parts are much easier to order and the price is much more affordable. Brands with proven quality over the years are also important. High-end ovens are more expensive but offer a longer lifespan. Here are some of the most popular brands we service:
· Frigidaire
· GE
· GE Monogram
· Whirlpool
· KitchenAid
· JennAir
· LG
· Maytag
· Thermador
· Viking
· And more
Double ovens require more patience and usually 2 technicians. We know most stoves have an option (self cleaning) but many times they cause the thermal fuses on the back to burn. Each major problem involves removing the oven from the wall and the special tools needed to fix the problem. For any defect or problem you notice, you can call 737 Oven Repair to take care of you.
The main parts of the oven are different depending on the type of oven (gas or electric). Gas ovens, and especially those with gas leaks, require an accurate evaluation by a professional oven repair technician. Gas components must be tightly closed and checked after installation. If you smell gas in your home or the alarm goes on, immediately turn off the gas and electricity to the stove or range and call 737 Appliance Repair Austin. Electric options require no less professional training and attention because they work with high voltage. Electric stoves are safer and many households prefer them because there is no risk of gas leaks or less chance of fires.
