Jenn Air Gas Grill
New Jenn air dual fuel, gas grill cooktop, major downdraft problems?
Wow do I think we have made a mistake. We just purchased a brand new dual fuel Jenn Air range. This is the model with half the top being a gas grill and the other side having two gas burners. The oven is electric.
We paid $2549 for the range and another $940 to install it! So we got about $3500 into what I’m thinking is a piece of crap.
Installers leave, I’m excited out comes the NY steaks. Fire up the grill and let it pre-heat, Fan for downdraft operating on high. Throw those bad boy steaks on the grill and within 5 minutes the entire house is filled with smoke, alarms going off etc. Check downdraft ouside and it is pumping out serious air flow, I can feel it on stove when I place hand over it. It pulls down a piece of paper etc. However, when grilling, it captures maybe 25% of the smoke. As you know grilling gets smokey. Any tips to this? Is this just how it is, or could the draft piping be installed wrong? Any tips are appreciated.
I don’t think it’s an installation problem. I had the exact same model in my last house and had the exact same problem. I had my doubts about the vent when I first saw the thing, but my wife wanted one and it really did work well otherwise.
It just seemed to me that a downdraft next to a pan with rising smoke had a fundamental flaw in the reasoning. We learned to live with it as the only alternative was to install a range hood which was structurally not feasible in our house..
