Britain’s most Beloved Range Cookers
Britain loves its Rangemasters! This well-known brand of range cookers, first manufactured in Royal Leamington Spa in the UK in 1830, is renowned for being high quality, durable and versatile – the essential ingredient for kitting out a perfect kitchen.
Famed for their blend of classic style and powerful performance, Rangemaster cookers come in a wide variety of styles and sizes, offering electric, gas or dual-fuel options and a selection of specialised features like glide-out grills, pyrolytic cleaning, induction hobs and steam cavities. Robust manufacturing and rigorous quality control means a well-looked after contemporary Rangemaster cooker can last for 15 years or more, but even the reliable beloved Rangemaster needs a helping hand every so often.
From the iconic Kitchener models that started it all in 1830 and are still popular in their modern form today, to the very latest in the Rangemaster collection like the Edge Deluxe, Estel Deluxe and Nexus range, none are immune to wear and tear, damage and faulty components.
When your Rangemaster develops a problem, however minor, you’ll need to call in professional Rangemaster repairers to diagnose and fix it.
Rangemaster Oven Temperature Inconsistencies
Here at Capital Repairs our expert Rangemaster repair technicians see our fair share of Rangemaster issues. Some of the most common Rangemaster problems relate to oven temperature troubles, like:
- Oven Failing to heat: This is usually found to be due to a faulty heating element, a problem with the thermostat or a tripped thermal cut-out. Replacing the faulty component will have your oven cooking in no time.
- Oven overheating: It’s frustrating to keep ending up with burnt cakes and dried out casseroles. An oven that’s overheating is usually down to a malfunctioning thermostat or temperature sensor, which an expert can recalibrate or replace.
- Uneven heating: If your bakes are being ruined by inconsistent heating there could be a problem with one of the heating elements, or the fan motor responsible for circulating hot air. We test and replace these parts to ensure even cooking throughout the oven.
Hob hiccups are another frequent factor in Rangemaster repairs. We commonly get called out for issues like:
- Gas burner not lighting: A gas safe registered engineer will quickly and safely diagnose and resolve this or any gas-related issue.
- Weak or uneven gas flame: This could indicate a blocked burner or issue with the gas regulator and is not good for optimal cooking. We’ll clean and adjust the burners.
- Induction Hob problems: Induction hob Rangemasters have issues such as individual zones not heating up, or indeed the entire hob failing. Our skilled technicians will diagnose and repair.
Servicing of Rangemaster Cookers
Other Rangemaster repairs we are called out for involve things like faulty door seals, which lead to heat loss and make the oven less efficient; clock or timer malfunctions that often indicate a problem with the control panel; and noisy built-in extractor fans that become blocked.
We always advise our Rangemaster customers that these appliances benefit enormously from a regular service – especially gas Rangemaster cookers – to ensure they are operating safely and performing optimally. A regular check helps identify and address potential malfunctions, preventing minor issues from escalating into major repairs or component replacements.
Rangemaster cookers are complex appliances, and when they go wrong its not wise to attempt DIY repairs – especially on gas cookers.
