The CPU-484GG gives a 48-inch counter both a grill and a griddle next to four burners. Grill and griddle sections each have their own burner and igniter, so one can fail while the other works. DCS stresses that the grease drip-pan must be in place whenever the grill or griddle runs.
DCS CP-364GD
The CP-364GD is from the CP series, the older DCS professional gas cooktops that preceded the CPU and CPV. A warped griddle plate is common after years of high heat; it rocks and heats unevenly and is replaced. Knobs close to a hot griddle can crack; they are simple replacements.
DCS CP-486GD
The CP-486GD is a 48-inch CP series rangetop with six burners and a griddle. On older gas cooktops, a faint gas smell near the controls with everything off is never ignored; everyone leaves, the gas utility is called from outside, and a licensed technician finds the leak once it has been made safe. Corroded burner […]
DCS CS-364GL
The CS-364GL is the rangetop version of the RGS range family, with four burners and a grill. Because DCS put both products in the same guide, cooktop parts often match those of the RGS-364GL range. Cracked radiants over the grill burner cause flare-ups and uneven heat.
DCS CS-366
The CS-366 is a six-burner rangetop in the CS series. Sparking on every burner when one is turned on is normal on many ranges; sparking that continues after the flame is lit is not, and usually points to moisture or a failing spark switch. An unstable low flame calls for a licensed technician to check […]
DCS CT-304
The CT-304 uses DCS’s sealed Dual Flow Burners, which DCS advertised as dropping the main flame at the lowest settings and keeping only an inner simmer flame. When that inner flame will not light or keep burning, the burner’s small inner ports are blocked or the cap is off center. A 30-inch drop-in with four […]
DCS CT-365
The CT-365 is the 36-inch five-burner drop-in cooktop. Its center burner is often used hardest, and a flame that lifts off the burner or roars points to a gas adjustment issue for a licensed technician. Wobbling grates usually have worn cushion supports under the grate feet.
