Q: QuestionI just got this cooktop installed. How am I going to tell if my cooktop has been replaced by gas propane conversion orifices since my house is supplied by propane gas. The cooktop has yellow flame. Is it normal.

Asked 6 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer We recommend reaching out to the installer if possible or contacting your LP gas provider to check the conversion. A properly burning propane flame should be blue not yellow. Joyce@CafeAppliances

Q: QuestionThe cut out of my counter top is 33 3/4" wide x 19 7/8" deep. The installation guide says 33 7/8" wide x 19 1/8" deep. Is my cut out too big? The cooktop is 36" x 21", meaning the lip covering the countertop is 1/2" on front and back. Will this work?

Q: QuestionDo you need exterior venting?

Asked 3 years ago by Kitty.

• A:Answer Hello - We appreciate your interest in this beautiful Cafe gas cooktop. This model does not need exterior venting. This cooktop does not require the use of ventilation unless your local codes require it. It is recommended for steam, odor, and grease removal when cooking on the cooktop. Any over-the-range microwave or separate vent hood will be sufficient. Please let us know if you have additional questions. Thanks for checking. Olga@GEA

Asked 2 years ago by Sally.

• A:Answer I have had my Cafe 36" gas cooktop for about 2-1/2 years now. And I will definitely tell you they melt! I have now been through 2 sets. The last time I tried to order them on line I was told they were discontinued. I have looked all over for a metal replacement they do not exist.
