Why your Imperial char-broiler is not heating

Catching not heating early on a Imperial char-broiler is usually straightforward: appliance runs but doesn't reach set temperature. Failed heating element, igniter, or thermal fuse. On this platform it's most often a bad control board. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.

Most likely causes

  • Failed igniter or gas valve
  • Tripped thermal fuse
  • Burned-out heating element
  • Faulty temperature sensor

Known Imperial char-broiler weak points

  • standing-pilot and thermocouple failures preventing burner ignition
  • burner valve and orifice wear causing weak or uneven flame
  • oven and fryer thermostat drift affecting temperature accuracy
  • griddle plate warping and thermostat faults over heavy use

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: check whether an ignition click or spark is audible at all when it should be heating. Also, confirm the char-broiler has power, any gas supply valve is open, and a simple reset — power off 60 seconds, back on — doesn't restore heat. Once you've ruled that out, heating elements, igniters, and gas valves combine high current or combustible gas, and that combination is a licensed-technician job, not a home fix.

How we fix it

Our technician runs a full diagnostic on your Imperial char-broiler and isolates the exact cause before quoting. OEM parts are available (Imperial is now Middleby-owned) through Parts Town and PartsFPS; gas work requires a licensed technician. Most not heating jobs finish same-day, at a flat price, under our warranty.

Called about our Imperial char-broiler in the morning and it was running again by evening. Stood behind the warranty and used a real Imperial OEM part, not a knockoff.
