    Folks
    Have a Baumatic 6 burner hob. Have it about 7 years now.
    It has 4 standard burners and then a 2 burner centre one, with a large burner and a small burner.

    There are 3 of the burners perfect. One that will light but goes out straight away and then 2 that have a very weak flame.

    Any ideas?

    Is it the two R/H burners that are weak?
    We have a 6 Burner hob from Baumatic too.
    The centre twin ring is fine, the L/H back and front are good as well. The R/H ones which don't get used much are pretty poor, I think its to do with lack of use and the jets getting clogged up.

    Sounds like dirty injectors and burners, get an RGI out to service.

    thanks for the replies.

    The 2 on the right are the worst yes, 1 wont stay light and the other is weak.


    Are all plumbers RGI? I have done all my own plumbing in the last 6 years so can't answer that question myself! :)

    Can I check anything myself?

    No, you cannot work on a gas appliance, neither can a plumber, you need a RGI.............. www.rgii.ie
