A burner that keeps heating after you turn it off needs attention.
A burner that keeps heating after you turn it off needs attention. A surface that is simply cooling down is different, but do not touch it to find out.
Tell us which zone is affected, where the control is set and whether the heat seems to keep increasing. Include the cooktop type and model.
Keep clear and follow the model's safe shutdown instructions. If you smell gas, leave the building and call ATCO or 911 from outside.
We check why the burner keeps receiving power or fuel before recommending a repair. Replacing the knob alone may not solve the problem.
Describe whether the problem was continued active heating or residual warmth after switching off, based on what was already visible. Do not test by touch or leave the cooktop operating. Follow the existing shutdown guidance and identify the affected zone and model when calling.
Send the full model number, the symptom and any displayed code when you request a visit. The $79 service call is applied toward the repair; confirm the full quote before authorizing work. See the repair cost guide for questions to ask.
