Glenwood Stove smells like gas
If your Glenwood stove smells like gas, a brief odor when a burner first lights can be normal, but the smell should fade quickly. A persistent stove smells like gas or oven smells like gas symptom may point to a damaged range/stove/oven valve or gas tube connection, the most likely cause listed for this problem. Check connections with a non-corrosive leak detection solution or dish soap mixed with water, and look for bubbles. If you suspect a leak, shut off the gas supply immediately. A faulty gas valve assembly or safety valve can also allow gas to escape after the burner lights or while the range is not in use. If the oven burner lights within about 90 seconds but you still smell gas, a failing oven igniter may be responsible. A damaged surface burner valve is another possible cause. Never operate the Glenwood gas range until a certified technician repairs a suspected leak. If you notice the distinctive rotten-egg odor of natural gas, contact your gas utility immediately and ventilate the area if safe. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement part for your Glenwood range, stove, or oven.

If you suspect a leak is present, you should shut off the gas supply immediately until the issue can be resolved.
