The Front orifice holder is an OEM replacement part for GE gas ranges/cooktops. This part is located under the cooktop, beneath the burner. It supplies the gas to the stovetop and houses the natural gas or propane orifice.
Causes of a malfunctioning front orifice holder can be worn over time, cracks or damage from accidental impacts or mishandling, or blockages within the gas channels.
Symptoms of a bad front orifice holder include:
- Uneven or inconsistent burner flame sizes
- Difficulties maintaining or reaching desired cooking temperatures
- Higher gas usage for no apparent reason
- Smells of gas inside or around the appliance
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
