New Jenn air dual fuel, gas grill cooktop, major downdraft problems?

Dec 22, 2007 by katesrevenge | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

Wow do I over we have made a mistake. We just purchased a brand new dual nourishment Jenn Air range. This is the model with half the top being a gas grill and the other side having two gas burners. The oven is stirring.

We paid $2549 for the range and another $940 to install it! So we got about $3500 into what I'm philosophy is a piece of crap.

Installers leave, I'm excited out comes the NY steaks. Fire up the grill and let it pre-stimulation, Fan for downdraft operating on high. Throw those bad boy steaks on the grill and within 5 minutes the undamaged house is filled with smoke, alarms going off etc. Go b investigate downdraft ouside and it is pumping out serious air flow, I can feel it on stove when I prosper hand over it. It pulls down a piece of paper etc. However, when grilling, it captures perhaps 25% of the smoke. As you know grilling gets smokey. Any tips to this? Is this honest how it is, or could the draft piping be installed wrong? Any tips are appreciated.

I don't have in mind it's an installation problem. I had the exact same model in my last house and had the thorough same problem. I had my doubts about the vent when I first saw the thing, but my wife wanted one and it extremely did work well otherwise.

It just seemed to me that a downdraft next to a pan with rising smoke had a fundamental ruin in the reasoning. We learned to live with it as the only alternative was to install a cover hood which was structurally not feasible in our house..

Does a gas cook top work well with a downdraft range?

We are in the light of the purchase of a Jenn-Air downdraft range with a gas cooktop. We've read that the downdraft actually sucks the boyfriend away from the pot. Is that true? Would that also be true on a cooktop with a rear downdraft exhaust? Any other comments on Jenn-Air downdraft ranges blanket?

I had this dilemma at my parent's house with their Jenn-air range when they switched from electric to gas. The downdraft scope does pull some of the heat away and will not be AS efficient, but you will still be talented to cook. If you are a real chef that likes to cook a lot, I'd look at my substitute options.

If you have a rear downdraft exhaust that sits up higher then the beau, you will not notice nearly as much of a change. When I encountered this at my parents outfit, because the back exhaust had little effect on the front burners, we were able to put a hood catalogue in that filtered and cycled the air back into the kitchen. It wasn't the ideal d, but it worked and they have full use of their rear gas down draft cook-top.
