Hello, I have a Whirlpool Model W10200947B, propane stove. The fire on my burners are really low even when they are on "high" setting. How do I adjust the flame to be hotter? Or more of a flame. Cooking is very slow. I already adjusted the simmer setting, but perplexed there isn't an adjustment for more flame or hotter flame. Is there any way to do that? Or is the grates too high? I would greatly appreciate some help.

Hi delam and welcome, Have you looked at the manual? Here's some suggestions. Good luck.

Surface burner flames are uneven, yellow and/or noisy


■ Are the burner ports clogged?
See “Surface Burners” section.
■ Are the burner caps positioned properly?
See “Surface Burners” section.
■ Is the air/gas mixture correct?
Contact a designated service technician to check the air/gas
Mixture, or see the Installation Instructions.
■ Is propane gas being used?
The appliance may have been converted improperly.
Contact a trained repair specialist.

There are no adjustments for the air fuel mixture as they are preset from the factory. You can only clean the orifices.

Usually they are set properly from the factory, but on some gas valves there are adjustment screws behind hex head screw-in caps. I would try cleaning the gas jets and adjust the air/gas mixture until the flame just starts to lift off the burner and is blue, but yours may be preset and any changes in gas pressure would cause a problem like CO. I would not advise adjusting any gas pressures without the proper gauges. There is a testing port on gas valves that you remove the hex head cap and screw in an adapter to hook a plastic hose to it. When the gas is on you have a ruler immersed in water and when the hose is 11" below the surface of the water (for LP gas) the flow should stop at more than that. Natural gas is set at 7" water column (wc). You can buy cheap gauges to do the same thing. Clean it first then look at the other possible causes.
