Summer storms and the odd winter outage can leave a cooktop's electronic controls confused when the power comes back, and a surge can damage a board. Most no-heat problems, though, come down to an igniter, a bake or broil element or a temperature sensor, and we test each before ordering parts.
Basement laundry is the rule in these rowhouses, and in long-held homes the drain and shutoff valves are often original.

Induction, gas lines and older circuits in Philadelphia
New-construction rowhomes and recently renovated condos, especially in neighborhoods like Fishtown, Northern Liberties and Graduate Hospital, have brought a lot of induction cooktops into Philadelphia kitchens. Many owners are new to induction, and some service calls turn out to be cookware: a pan that is only partly magnetic, a warped base that does not sit flat, or a pan smaller than the zone's detection threshold. A simple magnet test on the bottom of the pan answers the question.
Gas cooktops remain common, supplied by PGW. A cooktop set into an island usually has its gas shutoff in the cabinet below; it is worth knowing where it is. If you smell gas, leave the house and call PGW or 911 from outside, without operating switches. Do not attempt to adjust burner valves or orifices yourself.
In older homes that are being updated, electric and induction cooktops draw significant power and need a properly sized dedicated circuit. A cooktop that trips the breaker or shuts down under heavy use may be on an undersized circuit, which is a job for an electrician, not a repair to the appliance.
