can heating elements be bought to replace ones burnt out?

I would contact the manufacturer for the answer. There may be standard sizes that work.

I am not sure about this; I would perhaps google that question or write directly to the company.

A direct replacement, I would think so... Changing to a different element I would not know. I have only had mine for a few months and Love it... Never thought about needing to change the element, at least not for a few years.

You will have to take the cover off to get to them.Most of them are in the back held in with screws.Usually have 3 elements and if one is bad the others will not last long ,so I replace them all. I have did this with 2 of the three I've got and the oldest one is 3 yrs.old.They both were not getting as hot as they should like yours seems to be doing.

I would say it could be done if you use a furnace filter or something with the same mesh as the that comes with the unit, but these units are not cheap and I prefer just. To buy there replacements !!

Yes. I was able to find a four pack of replacement bulbs at the local hardware store, and it wasn't like a lava lamp where the bulb is more expensive than the lamp. Just pull off the top glass piece and the bulb can be replaced.

I do not think that there is anything you can do but replace it; however, our house cleaner pointed out that the element is very close to the surface where it connects and she suggested propping up the element so the distance is greater because anything that connects the element to the inside of the stove will burn off the end of the element.

Mine burned out after 4 years. They'll replace for 1 year from purchase, but likely only if you buy direct.

Okay, here's was my strategy. Replace them all. The complete lot of switches and fuses was $15. The heating element was $17. A service call in my area is $80 before parts. Simple math says . . .

Misty, I am not sure if you can get just the top burner...I thought that the original company went out of business, and these are just leftover or knock-offs, but they work just the same.

You find replacements at a propane shop or a sporting goods store. You can also get them from Dyna-glow.

I would contact K & H about the problem and about any warranty. Mine has worked for several years and I finally bought a new one only because my cat had worn out the covering but the heating element from the old one still works. You may have got a dud and I am sure the company will help you.

Not sure. I don't think the internals are replaceable, and the kits sold for fixing lamps may not be compatible at the mechanical level. You may have to buy a new one.

I assume that it can, but to be sure you should call Masterbuilt support. They seem pretty responsive. The heating element appears to be mounted similar to an oven heating element. The two ends of the element pass through a small metal plate that is mounted to the inside back wall with two screws. There is an access plate on the outside of the back of the unit at about this same location. It is possible that the element would unplug by removing the two screws holding the plate to the inside back wall. It is also possible that the back plate would need to be removed to get to connections. I did not try to remove the plates to find out.

I really don't know, we saw them on sale and bought them, so when our old units fail we can just replace the whole thing. Sorry.

No. Unfortunately mine burned out and was replaced several times and it became more economical to replace with a standard water heater. I no longer can recommend this product.

I did try to fix the heating element on one, but found it cheaper and easier to replace the Stick.
