Why your Blodgett pizza oven is burning smell
On a Blodgett pizza oven, burning smell usually announces itself like this: smell of burning rubber, plastic, or wiring. STOP USE — call us immediately. Nine times out of ten it comes down to a blocked, leaking, or misaligned part. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A worn mechanical part at end of life
- A wiring or control-board problem
- An electrical or control fault
- A failed sensor or switch
Known Blodgett pizza oven weak points
- convection blower motor and bearing failures
- door gasket wear and hinge/spring failures causing heat loss
- spark igniter/ignition module and gas valve faults on gas models
- thermostat/temperature calibration drift and contactor failures on electric models
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: confirm the pizza oven has power and rule out anything obvious — a tripped breaker, an unlatched door, a blocked vent. Beyond that, if the basics check out, the fault is inside the control system or a sealed component, and diagnosing that safely takes a technician's tools and training.
How we fix it
An experienced tech tests the Blodgett pizza oven systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the burning smell. OEM Blodgett/Middleby parts are widely available; gas ignition and valve work requires a licensed technician per local code. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.
