A gas stove flame that is not blue could be a sign of a problem with efficient and safe combustion. Here are some steps you can take to overcome this problem.

1. Clean the stove parts.

Make sure that the stove parts such as the burner holes and gas channels are clean from dirt or food debris which can hinder the flow of gas and air.

2. Check the gas regulator.

Make sure the gas regulator connected to the gas cylinder is functioning properly. If the regulator is damaged or clogged, it could interfere with proper gas flow.

3. Check the gas hose.

Check the gas hose to ensure there are no leaks or damage. Moisture or certain chemicals can damage the gas hose. If you suspect a leak, turn off the gas and replace the hose immediately.

4. Reset the settings.

If the stove has an adjustable gas setting, try resetting it to achieve a better gas and air mixture. Typically, this is done by turning the adjustment bolt on the burner hole.

5. Check gas pressure.

Make sure the gas pressure from the gas cylinder is sufficient to maintain good combustion. Low gas pressure can be the cause of a flame that is not blue.

6. Check ventilation.

Make sure there is adequate ventilation around the stove. Sufficient fresh air will help in better combustion.

7. Check the stove for other problems.

If after performing the above steps the flame is still not blue, there may be another problem with the stove such as a faulty gas valve or other technical problem. In this case, it is recommended to call a certified gas technician to check and repair the problem.

8. Consult an expert.

If you're not sure what's causing the problem or if you're not comfortable doing the repair yourself, it's best to consult a gas stove expert or home appliance technician.

Don't ignore the problem of a gas stove flame that is not blue because it can cause serious dangers such as gas leaks or incomplete combustion. Always prioritize your safety and the safety of others around you when dealing with this problem.
