While cooking on your stove top, you may (often) spill contents over and under the stove burners. Whether it be soup, sauce, vegetables or ground beef, these food particles can stay for days or weeks (but hopefully not). The comes a point where it needs to be cleaned up, but how do you reach under these burners? Read this article to get some tips on how to clean under a stove top.
Most stove tops can actually be lifted up so you can easily clean under and around the burners. Your stove top should be able to lift up from the front, and there may even be a rod to help keep it hoisted in the ‘up’ position, much like what you find under the hood of your car. Before lifting this though, check to see whether your burners are connected to the actual stove top or not.
If you have electric burners, they are likely connected, so you can simply lift up the top and start cleaning underneath. If you have gas burners, you should be able to remove the metal burners and place them to the side before lifting the top up.
Now to the process of cleaning. You can use a typical household cleaner, a sponge/paper towels, and warm water to rinse. Be sure to clean up all remnants of the household cleaner so the chemicals don’t burn off when you turn on the stove.
