Function & Importance

The WP8273993 radiant surface element sits beneath the glass cooktop and provides direct radiant heat to your cookware. With its 1800W power rating, it delivers fast temperature response and precise heat control, making it ideal for everyday cooking, simmering, and boiling. A fully functional heating element is crucial for consistent performance and energy efficiency. When the element begins to fail, temperature fluctuations and slow heating will significantly affect the cooking experience.

Symptoms That Indicate Replacement

You may need to install a new Whirlpool WP8273993 surface element if you notice:

• Burner won’t heat or heats inconsistently

• Heating cycles on and off without adjusting the controls

• Only a portion of the burner glows red while cooking

• Hotspots, burning smells, or unusual discoloration
