Artisan is the more affordable grill line sold beside Alfresco on the same maker's site, offered as American Eagle, Artisan and Professional series from 26 to 42 inches, each as a built-in head or on a cart. The Professional adds an infrared rear rotisserie burner, and any of them can take an optional infrared burner in place of a U-burner. Artisan grills cook over U-burners and ceramic briquettes, so a visit looks at the briquette trays as closely as the burners. The Artisan lineup ### Builds 3 grill types Built-in gas grill · Freestanding gas grill · Infrared grill ### Called out for Grill Igniter Not Sparking or Clicking Weakly and 5 more problems on Artisan ### Repairs we do 10 repairs, on any make Grill diagnostic visit · Grill burner replacement · Grill igniter repair · Grill valve and regulator repair ### Error codes Artisan grills publish no error codes. The manual asks you to listen instead: a rapid snapping when the igniter button is pressed means the spark works, and silence points to the 9-volt battery. Book with what the grill is doing and the model plate; the visit starts from the symptom. ## The Artisan lineup. Artisan builds 3 of the 4 grill types this site covers. Which one decides how the visit is planned.

We service Artisan American Eagle (AAEP), Artisan (ART) and Professional (ARTP) grills from 26 to 42 inches, built in or on the matching cart. The Professional's infrared rotisserie burner and the optional infrared burner are lit and preheated differently from the U-burners. ### A 9-volt battery behind a separate igniter button Artisan grills light by pressing an igniter button while pushing and turning the knob, and the spark runs on a 9-volt battery. A working igniter snaps rapidly; silence when the button is pressed sends us to the battery before any wiring. ### Ceramic briquettes that clean themselves Pyramid-shaped ceramic briquettes sit locked in radiant trays above the U-burners. Artisan has you flip the tray and run the burners on high with the lid closed to burn them clean, so greasy briquettes are rarely a reason to replace them. ### Two lighting systems on one switch The grill has incandescent lights over the cooking area and blue LED panel lights under the control panel, both on one switch. When neither comes on, a tripped GFCI or an unplugged cord is far more common than a failed bulb. ### The serial number picks the parts list Artisan splits its parts manuals by serial number, with one list for grills up to 25-133999 and another from 25-134000 on. We read the serial plate first so the igniter switch, burner or tray we bring is the right one. Parts Parts are listed in separate manuals for each model and serial range, and the momentary ignition switch, the light switch and the U-burners carry their own part numbers. Serials before and after 25-134000 can need different parts. Repair or replace Artisan grills are welded 304 stainless with replaceable burners, briquettes and igniter parts, so repair is the usual answer. A grill that runs cool because of foil linings or a blocked burner needs cleaning, not a new grill. Book your Artisan visit ## What we are called out for.

What next? Confirm the gas is on and leak-free, then try lighting one burner with a match as the manual describes. If it lights with a match, the igniter needs adjusting or service; if it will not, the burner is likely blocked, often by spiders or insects. ### Are orange tips on my Artisan grill's flame a problem? A few orange tips are normal in dusty air or when grease is present. A mostly yellow flame together with a gas smell is not: turn every burner off, close the gas supply and book a visit. ### How long should the Artisan infrared burner preheat? At least five minutes with the hood open. The U-burners want at least 15 minutes with the hood closed, or 20 to 25 for high heat. ### Can I line my Artisan grill with aluminum foil? No. Artisan says foil anywhere in the grill disturbs the airflow, leaving the firebox short of heat while the space behind the control panel runs too hot. --- **[Read on the site: Artisan Grill Repair | BBQGrillRepair.center](https://bbqgrillrepair.center/brands/artisan/)** **[Book a visit with BBQGrillRepair.center](https://bbqgrillrepair.center/schedule/)**
