adjusting burners with new valves

Postby emradguy » Mon Dec 15, 2014 8:16 pm

Hi Guys,

Newbie here with a question on my recent repair. I replaced the valves on my grill (a KitchenAid built-in natural gas 2 burner), and the high flame is rather low. I've found quite a bit of info on how to make the low setting lower, but haven't seen anything on making the high setting higher. Is it just a matter of increasing the air mix? I haven't changed anything other than replacing the valves. Also, I checked all the connections for leaks before putting the case back together.

Thanks in advance...

what color is the flame? if blue, you are getting enough air. if not, then the air might be your problem. any chance you left some teflon tape or something inside that could be restricting? Are both burners too low? If so, perhaps you have a regulator issue?
