12019984 Genuine Burner Housing for Bosch, Siemens, Neff Gas Cooktops, BSH Gas Hob Burner Base Replacement Part

BSH lists part 12019984 as a burner housing, a genuine part for gas cooktops in the Bosch, Siemens and Neff ranges. On most gas cooktops the housing is the lower section of the burner, fixed into the cooktop, with the injector below it and the diffuser and cap sitting on top. Burner size isn't on our record, so check that your parts list shows 12019984 for the burner you're repairing.

When a gas burner housing needs replacing

The housing holds the burner together. It carries gas up from the injector, positions the diffuser and cap, and often supports the spark electrode and flame failure probe. Damage tends to come from overheating, a dropped pan, corrosion after years of spills, or a cracked casting. Signs include a burner that won't sit level, a diffuser that rocks, flames escaping around the base, or an electrode or probe that no longer holds firm. If you smell gas near a burner, stop using the cooktop and call a gas fitter.

Who should fit a burner housing

This part sits on the gas side of the cooktop, so in Australia the job belongs to a licensed gas fitter. They will turn off the gas supply, isolate the power to the ignition and lift the cooktop to reach the burner fixings. After fitting, the burner should be leak tested, the electrode gap checked and the flame failure tested before the cooktop goes back into use.

Questions about this part

Can I fit a burner housing myself?

Not legally in Australia. Anything that holds or carries gas, including a burner housing, needs to be installed and leak tested by a licensed gas fitter. You can still order the part and have it ready for their visit.
