Electric stove parts are not always easy to find, but these days you have a bit of an advantage because you can generally find them online – and quickly. The easiest way to do that is to look for make and model numbers on your appliances. Electric stoves usually have a model number you can find and then plug it into a search engine. Voila – lots of sites where you can find what you’re looking for.
If by chance you happen to have an older electric stove and the model number is worn off, you can still search for the make of your stove. For instance, if you do a search for GE electric stove parts, it will bring up an extensive listing of places to find parts. Some sites are so easy to use, you can even find your stove even if you don’t know the model or manufacturer part number. Just answer a few questions about the type of part you’re trying to find and select from a list of relevant matches. Descriptions and photos of the parts make finding what you need easy.
Another idea for finding parts for your electric stove is to check out what is listed on eBay. Simply type in what parts you are interested in – for example, parts for a Kenwood electric stove, or Whirlpool electric stove parts. No matter what you search for, so long as you have the brand name of your stove, you’ll be sure to find what you need to actually handle your own electric stove repair. If you’re uncertain where to start when you want to find parts on the Internet, then try typing the phrase “fix an electric stove” into the search engine bar. When you get the search results, you will get a better idea of what you may be looking for by checking out a variety of different sites.
Another thing you can do to learn how to fix an electric stove is to type into the search bar the actual question you need an answer to – such as – electric stove doesn’t work, or works intermittently. Right away you’ll get answers like check for blown fuses, a tripped circuit breaker, test the electric outlet for current and so on.
Reading electric stove reviews is also a great idea to keep up with what’s current and what to expect in terms of operating efficiency and possible parts that may need replacement or repair further down the road. Got an electric stainless steel stove? No problem, you can find parts for this as well.
If you’re looking for parts for antique stoves, or in the market to buy one, you’ll find some really interesting information on a wide variety of older stoves. For instance, monarch electric stoves from the 1940s have 4 burners and an oven, usually with four grates inside. Hard to find, but a nice piece for collectors. An even nicer find for those interested in turn of the century stoves is an antique universal electric stove from the 1930s.
Not looking for parts for your stove, but more interested in finding an electric fireplace stove heater? Seems like a contradiction in terms, doesn’t it? An electric fireplace stove or an electric wood stove are lovely additions to any home. You get to enjoy the ambiance of a traditional wood stove in any room by plugging your unit into a standard 120V outlet and switching it on! No fuss, no muss, and the flames are incredibly realistic. Just make sure to remember you need protective flooring sections under your electric fireplace wood stove to prevent the floor from being scorched.
