I have a 36" commerical gas stove, 6 burners. I want to convert the gas pilots to ignition lighter. The manufacture does not have a retro kit for this model (commercial). How can I find one or make one?

Hello TUMember1. Welcome to the Gas Appliances topic and the Do-It-Yourself Web Site.

Not a project you should attempt, in my opinion. If there isn't an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) conversion kit, attempting a conversion will more then likely not be easy, cost effective nor feasible.

Best bet is to leave it as it. I have seen a few of these types of conversions. None ever worked as intended.

Some caused oven and/or broiler safety devices to fail...:thumbdn:

Resulting in exposions....:eek:
