Thor Stove Repair in Philadelphia

On a Thor gas range, the cooktop carries high-output sealed burners, a dedicated simmer burner and heavy continuous cast-iron grates.

On Thor stoves, the faults that come up most are igniters wet from spills, spark module, caps knocked out of place, and faulty valves. Symptoms that bring us out include clicks but never lights, lopsided flame, and sparking that will not stop. When a burner clicks without lighting, especially after a boil-over, reseat its cap and clear the ports first. A coil that glows unevenly or shows a blister should be replaced before it fails outright.

Compared with a standard stove, high-output sealed burners send more boil-overs onto the igniters, and a soaked igniter is the top reason a burner clicks but never catches. The simmer burner's small flame blows out easily when its ports are partly clogged. A new spark module is only called for after the switches and igniters have been cleared.

If you smell gas around a stove, leave the house without touching light switches and call PGW or 911 from outside before calling anyone else. Before quoting, we clean and dry the suspect igniter and try again; that alone solves plenty of no-light complaints.

Check behind the lower drawer or kick panel for the rating plate on a Thor range; on a Thor refrigerator it sits in the fresh-food section. Whether it proves to be the caps knocked out of place or something less obvious, you get a written estimate before any work, and the repair is covered for 90 days on parts and 30 on labor.

Wipe the cooktop after a spill before it bakes onto the igniters. For simmer burner blowing out or any other Thor stove fault, the visit starts with a diagnosis and a written price.
