Samsung Stove smells like gas
If your Samsung stove smells like gas, a slight odor when a gas burner first lights can be normal, but the smell should disappear quickly. A persistent gas smell from your stove, oven, or range may indicate a damaged gas valve or leaking gas tube connection, which requires immediate attention. Shut off the gas supply and avoid using the appliance until the problem is repaired. The next likely cause is a defective gas valve assembly or safety valve, especially if you smell gas after the burner lights or when the range is not in use. A failing oven igniter can also allow gas to accumulate if the oven burner does not ignite within about 90 seconds. For a smell near a cooktop burner, inspect the surface burner valve as another possible cause. You can check valve and tube connections with a non-corrosive leak detection solution or soapy water, but contact a certified technician if bubbles appear. If the odor resembles rotten eggs and does not go away, leave the area, ventilate if safe, and contact your gas utility immediately. Enter your model number to find the exact Samsung replacement part for your range, stove, or oven.
01 - Samsung Range/Stove/Oven Valve
While all gas ranges will have a slight gas smell when the burners first light, a persistent smell could be the result of a damaged valve or gas tube. You can apply a non-corrosive leak detection solution, or dishsoap mixed with water, to the valve or tube connection points. The solution will bubble is a gas leak is present. If you suspect a leak is present, you should shut off the gas supply immediately until the issue can be resolved.
