Do not turn up the flame too high. A good rule of thumb is if the flame can be seen anywhere up the side of the pot, it is too high. Match the pan size to the burner. Using a 6" pan on an 8" burner will waste over 40% of the heat produced by the burner. Invest in sturdy flat bottomed cookware.

The energy consumption of a burner is strongly influenced by the user’s way of cooking. For example some chefs use 50% more energy than others cooking the same meal just because of their style of cooking.

Switch off equipment when it is not needed. By providing good staff training they should know how long a piece of equipment takes to reach a required temperature.

Most of the faults that affect gas ranges involve the supply and ignition of gas in the burners.

Trouble Shooting Gas & LPG

Most of the faults that affect gas ranges involve the supply and ignition of gas in the burners. Regular maintenance will avoid larger, more expensive repairs and keep them in service

If the oven won't heat to the desired temperature or heats unevenly, the problem could be a faulty door gasket. The best way to test for this is to pass your hand around the door, while the oven is turned on. If you can feel heat escaping, the gasket needs replacement

Clogged burners are a common problem with gas ranges because foods spilled on the burners block the gas ports and prevent ignition. Clear the holes with fine wire.

An oven that does not heat or heats unevenly is most likely to be a faulty control, thermostat, or timer

If the oven doesn't heat evenly or doesn't heat at all, the oven thermostat may be faulty

The flame of gas range burners should be steady and slightly rounded, with a light-blue tip. The flame should be quiet and should respond to adjustments made at the control knobs.

Most burner troubles can be quickly solved by adjusting the air shutter mixer plate. If the flame is yellow, it's not receiving enough air. If the flame is high or makes a roaring noise, it's getting too much air.

Trouble Shooting Electric

One of the most common faults that affect electric ranges and ovens involve faulty heating elements. If your oven will not get up to temperature or is heating unevenly it is could be a faulty door gasket. A simple way to identify the problem would be to pass your hand around the edge of the door when the oven is turned on. If you can feel heat escaping the door gasket requires replacing.

When your oven will not heat or heats unevenly, the fault could be with the thermostat or controller.

Another common fault is fuses. If the cooker is receiving power but will not switch on it is most likely to be a fuse fault. Check to see if the fuse has blown or circuit breaker tripped out and test the electrical cord.

To test the oven temperature, place a thermostat in the oven and set the temperature 300°C. After 20 minutes if the result is off by less than °F the control is normal.
