Learn how to spot a worn or damaged Dome S1 pizza stone, when to replace it, and how the Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit solves the issue.
Quick answer
If your Dome S1 pizza stone has visible cracks, chips, or a surface that no longer heats evenly, it's time to replace it with the Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit. This kit includes everything you need for a safe swap.
Why stone condition matters for your Dome S1
The pizza stone in your Dome S1 is the heart of the cooking surface. A damaged stone can lead to uneven heat, longer preheat times, and poor crust results. Even small cracks can expand during heating cycles, eventually affecting performance or even causing pieces to break off during cooking.
Replacing the stone restores consistent heat distribution and protects your oven's interior from further wear. The Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit is designed specifically for the right side of the S1 stone, so you get an exact fit without modifications.
What the kit includes and what it doesn't
The Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit (right stone) comes with the replacement stone, stone removal handles, a stone adjustment tool, a landing bay protective screen, and protective gloves. It covers everything needed for a straightforward replacement.
Note that this part is originally included with the Dome S1 oven. You only need to purchase this spare if the original stone is lost or damaged. The kit does not include instructions for the left side stone, so verify that you are replacing the correct side before ordering.
Diagnosis: Is it time to replace your Dome S1 stone?
- Symptom: Visible cracks, chips, or flaking on the stone surface. Uneven browning on pizza crusts. Stone takes noticeably longer to preheat than when new.
- Likely cause: Thermal shock from rapid temperature changes (e.g., placing cold dough on a very hot stone, or splashing water). Normal wear after many cooking cycles. A drop or impact during cleaning.
- Corrective action: Order the Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit (right stone). Remove the old stone using the included removal handles. Install the new stone with the adjustment tool, then run a low-heat burn-in cycle (around 300°F / 150°C for 30 minutes) before cooking. Always let the stone cool completely before removing it to avoid thermal shock to the new stone.
- When to stop or choose another option: If the crack is hairline and does not affect cooking performance, you can continue using the stone. If the stone has a large missing piece, is warped, or the oven floor is damaged underneath, stop using the oven and contact Gozney support before replacing the stone. A warped oven floor is not fixed by a new stone — professional inspection is needed.
