I've suspected for a long time that our natural gas pressure is too high coming into the house. I first asked about it a while back; an alarm we had was malfunctioning, and while we had a gas company dude here to double-check I asked him if the furnace didn't "WHOOOFF" a little too loudly when it lights. He said it was fine.
But lately we've been having trouble with the oven, and the other night when I went to check and set the flame, it looked too large to me (about 1-1/2") even with the air chimney all the way closed; in fact, it didn't look like the air chimney had much of any effect on the size of the flames at all. I realize the stove has its own regulator, but it's only designed to take the edge off 7 inches or so of pressure and I wouldn't expect it to handle any significant overpressure.
Am I worried about nothing?
