Whirlpool Range Surface Burner Caps (WPW10183374)

The Whirlpool Range Surface Burner Caps sit on top of each surface burner on your gas range and help distribute the flame evenly around pots and pans during cooking. They work by directing the flow of gas as it ignites, spreading heat in a consistent pattern for better cooking results. This set of five caps covers all the burners on compatible Whirlpool ranges.

Whirlpool Range Surface Burner Caps can deteriorate over time from repeated exposure to high heat, grease buildup, food spills, and routine cleaning. Cracked, warped, or clogged caps disrupt the gas flow pattern, which leads to uneven flames, difficulty igniting, or burners that flame up on one side and not the other.

Look for these symptoms to help determine if your burner caps need to be replaced:

- Burner flame is uneven, weak, or only ignites on one side

- Burner takes multiple attempts to light or will not ignite at all

- Flame lifts off the burner or blows out easily during use

- Visible cracks, chips, or warping on one or more caps

- Yellow or orange flame instead of a steady blue flame

- Clicking igniter sound continues after the burner has lit

- Uneven heating of cookware during normal cooking
