Simmerstat

Simmerstats - also known as an energy regulator or infinite switch - are responsible for turning the heating elements on and off in hobs, grills, and various other cooking appliances. During the cooking period, the simmerstat tells the heating element to turn on and switch off at regular intervals. The length of those intervals is determined by you, the user - you simply turn the control knob that's hooked up to the simmerstat to determine how long you want each on period and each off period to last (and thus how much energy you want the heating element to use).

An example of a simmerstat in use

Let's imagine you're heating up some pasta sauce on your cooker's hob.

Saucepan on a hob

The instructions on the jar call for a low heat, so you turn the hob's control knob a quarter-turn. This is effectively telling the simmerstat that you want the hob's heating element on a quarter of the time.

Switching the hob on begins a cycle that is regulator by the simmerstat (energy regulator). For instance, the heating element might come on for 10 seconds, then turn off for 30 seconds, then come on for another 10 seconds, then go off for another 30 seconds...

You get the idea. This duty cycle means that, overall, the hob's heating element is operating at roughly a quarter of its full power, and since it is switched off for 75% of the time, your pasta sauce won't be allowed to get too hot.

If you're cooking something else that calls for a higher heat setting, you might turn the control knob three-quarters of the way around. Now you're telling the simmerstat to keep the hob ON for 75% of the time and OFF for 25% of the time. In this case, the element would theoretically stay on for 30 seconds before switching off for 10 seconds.

Need a new simmerstat?

If your simmerstat has stopped working then your cooker won't work properly either. Don't worry, though - we have a range of spare energy regulators available here at Cooker Spare Parts.

Have you found that your cooker is always overheating and your meals are turning out overcooked? Well one of the cooker parts that try to prevent this from happening is your Thermal Cut Out Switch - but what exactly is a thermal cut out switch?

What is A Thermal Cut-Out Switch


Your Thermal Cut Out Switch will cut out the power supply if your cooker exceeds a set temperature and excess heat starts to build up inside your cooker. This is a problem as there is a risk that some cooker part may become damaged if your cooker gets too hot - such as your oven element. If your cooker's element becomes faulty, your cooker will struggle to produce any heat, which is a major problem, and therefore it's vitally important that your Thermal Cut Out Switch is replaced as soon as you notice it has become faulty, to prevent your oven element from also becoming faulty.

Replacing your thermal switch will not only stop any other parts from becoming faulty, but will also save you money when it comes to your energy bills, which is an added bonus. If your cut out switch has become faulty, we have an terrific range of Thermal Switches and Door Switches that will prevent you're cooker from overheating and ensure your cooker is back to normal.

If you have any questions, or you've stumbled across any problems please do not be afraid to contact us - we'd be more than happy to help.

Is your oven constantly overheating? Before considering replacing your whole appliance, there are a few things that could be causing your oven to get too hot. Typical causes are a faulty thermostat, cooling fan, or oven element - if any of these are not fully functioning it may be the cause of your oven's overheating problem. 
 
This is a problem, as not only will your meals be overcooked, but there is also a risk of cooker's components becoming damaged, and causing them to become faulty.  Read on to learn more about how to resolve your overheating problem!
 

What could be causing my oven to overheat?

If your oven is overheating it is most likely to be caused by a faulty part. More often then not it'll be your thermostat, cooling fan or oven element that is causing the problem. Read our guide to figure out which one is causing you a problem and how to get a replacement part. 

Oven Thermostat

If your oven's temperature is higher than what you set it to, then it's likely that your thermostat has become faulty and requires replacing. Your oven's thermostat role is to measure your oven's temperature and once it has reached the temperature you've set it to it'll inform your cooker to stop heating up and to just remain at that temperature. If your oven thermostat is faulty, it won't be reading the temperature of your oven accurately, causing it to over or under heat -  but there's no need to panic, we have a superb selection of oven thermostats that will stop your oven from overheating and will ensure it is back to cooking at its best once again.

Your cooling fan is another oven part that prevents your cooker from getting too hot. Here at Cooker Spare Parts, we have a comprehensive range of oven cooling fans for you to choose from - whichever cooker model you own, we're confident you'll be able to find a replacement for your cooling fan.

Oven Element

The final part that could be causing your oven to overheat is the your oven element. Your element is the part that is directly responsible for producing the heat that allows you to cook your meals. If your oven element is faulty, it may be producing more heat than is needed. If your element is showing signs of any faults, it's paramount that you replace it as soon as possible, as it is vitally important that it is working efficiently. We have a gigantic selection of oven elements - to view range of oven elements, please click here.
