Many Olney, Logan & Oak Lane kitchens cook on natural gas. If a gas cooktop ever smells of gas, leave the house and call PGW or 911 from outside before anything else. Short of that, a burner that clicks but won't light is usually a dirty or cracked igniter, and an oven that won't heat is often a weak igniter or a failed element.
Older homes here often have basement laundry with original hookups, which is worth knowing before a repair or replacement goes in.

Four types of cooktop, four ways of heating
Gas cooktops use sealed burners lit by spark igniters. Each burner has its own valve, and higher-end models may have a dual-ring burner or a dedicated simmer burner with a separate flame path. Professional-style gas cooktops sometimes use re-ignition, which re-sparks automatically if a flame goes out.
Radiant glass cooktops use ribbon heating elements under a ceramic glass surface. An infinite switch or a touch control cycles power to each element, and a hot-surface indicator lamp stays on until the glass cools. Bridge zones and expandable elements add extra circuits.
Induction cooktops use a coil under the glass that creates a magnetic field. The field heats the pan directly, so the glass gets warm only from the pan sitting on it. Induction needs magnetic cookware, has a cooling fan and power electronics underneath, and uses pan detection to switch on. It is increasingly common in new-construction homes and condos.
Coil cooktops, now less common, use plug-in coil elements over drip pans. They are the simplest of all to service.
