Grill won't get hot

The first thing to check is the venturi tubes. See our How to Clean Venturis page.

If that doesn't do the trick, here are some other common causes:
 

  • Venturi tubes not properly seated over valve orifices - Realign/engage gas valve with venturi tube.
     
  • Burner ports blocked - Clean/replace burner.
     
  • Poor combustion - Adjust air shutter.
     
  • Inadequate gas pressure - Contact gas supplier for assistance.
     
  • Incorrect orifice/valve setting.
     
  • Gas leak - Perform leak test.
     
  • Regulator not fully tightened into cylinder - Hand tighten fully (POL requires wrench).
  •
