If you have an electrical oven

Every oven needs two things, correct installation and proper care. That is to say, installation is a one-time task while proper care is what you need to perform regularly.

So, if you have got an electrical oven, your care shall include the following regular activities:

• Clean the cavity, both by hands and enabling self-cleaning mode (if any) from time to time
• If your oven is fan-assisted, check and clean its fan filter to provide a sufficient air supply
• Inspect the door seals and timely replace cracked ones so that heat cannot escape from the cavity
• Maintain sufficient spacing around the appliance to ensure sufficient airflow
• When cleaning the oven exterior, avoid water slipping inside the casing to prevent electric short

However, if you notice the fault signs, contact us to schedule an oven repair service. Our engineers can fix the issue in one go.

If you have a gas oven

A gas oven is a more complicated appliance to care about. In other words, it requires all the maintenance as you do with an electrical oven plus a few extras. To clarify, these extra tasks arise because, in addition to an electrical tech inside, there is a gas one.
So, if you have got a gas oven, the full list of regular care activities include:

• Arranging sufficient spacing around the unit
• Cleaning the cavity and fan filter (for fan-assisted appliances)
• Door seal inspections, cleaning, and timely replacement if necessary
• Preventing water from slipping inside the casing when cleaning the unit exterior
• Cleaning the burner to keep the flame burning efficiently
• Burner inspection and replacement if you detect any deformities or uneven spots
  

It is especially important to service the burner. For this, you may need the assistance of a pro. To clarify, there are so many elements to check and maintain in the burner. For instance, the lighter, pilot light, safety thermocouple, and the main jet hole to regulate the airflow. Therefore, only a qualified engineer should undertake the task.

So, reach us if you need to service or repair your oven, either electrical or gas. Our certified and Gas Safe registered engineers are always happy to help you keep it working well.
