Bertazzoni PROF304QXE Drop-In Cooktop Service

The PROF304QXE is a 30-inch drop-in gas cooktop with four burners from the Professional Series, one of which is a 17,000 BTU power burner. It goes into a standard 30-inch counter cutout, often over a cabinet or beside a wall oven.
The power burner draws the most gas and holds the most heat, so it needs the cleanest port and the most stable cap. If its flame turns ragged, we clear the head, reseat the cap and test the spark. On the smaller burners, the usual trouble is a flame that dies at low heat, which a partly blocked port often causes.
If you notice a gas odor, leave and call the gas utility from outside. We write the price down first and cover our work with a 30-day workmanship warranty.
Residue in the ports or a cap that is not flat changes the gas and air mix. We clean the head, reseat the cap and check the flame again.
No. A steady low flame is expected. A partly blocked port or poor cap seating usually causes the dropout, and cleaning solves it in most cases.
It runs hotter than the others, so keep pot handles and towels away from it. Good ventilation overhead also helps carry away the heat and fumes that this larger burner produces.
Book in about a minute, or call the desk. Same-day windows inside the Loop on most days, next-day across the rest of Houston.
