Learn how to safely replace the left (burner side) stone in your Gozney Dome S1 with the official replacement kit, including tools, steps, and common mistakes to avoid.
Quick Answer
Replace the left stone in your Dome S1 with the official Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit, which includes the stone, removal handles, adjustment tool, protective screen, and gloves. Follow the steps below to do it safely and correctly.
Why Use the Official Replacement Kit?
The Dome S1 Replacement Stone Kit is designed specifically for the left (burner side) of your oven. It includes everything you need for a proper replacement: the stone, stone removal handles, stone adjustment tool, landing bay protective screen, and protective gloves. Using the correct parts ensures a proper fit and safe operation.
If you're replacing the stone because of damage or wear, the official kit is your best option. While third-party stones might be cheaper, they may not match the exact dimensions or material properties, which could affect cooking performance and safety.
Before You Start: Safety and Preparation
Make sure the oven is completely cool before you begin. The stone and surrounding surfaces can stay hot for a long time after use, so wait at least a couple of hours after the last cook.
Gather all the tools from the kit: the stone removal handles, stone adjustment tool, and protective gloves. You'll also want a soft surface to place the old stone on, like a towel or cardboard, to avoid scratching your countertop or patio.
Check that the kit you have is the correct one for the left side. The left stone is the one on the burner side of the oven. If you're unsure, refer to your oven's manual or contact Gozney support.
Step-by-Step Replacement Process
- Ensure the oven is cool: Wait until the dome and stone are completely cool to the touch. This prevents burns and makes the stone less brittle. Check that the stone is cool even if the oven has been off for hours.
- Remove the landing bay protective screen: Carefully detach the protective screen from the landing bay area. Set it aside; you'll reinstall it with the new stone. Keep the screen in a safe place so you don't lose it.
- Attach the stone removal handles: Insert the two stone removal handles into the designated slots on the left stone. Make sure they are fully seated so you have a firm grip. If the handles feel loose, reseat them before lifting.
- Lift out the old stone: Gently lift the stone straight up using both handles. Avoid tilting or twisting, which could crack the stone or damage the oven interior. If the stone is stuck, do not force it; gently wiggle it free.
- Place the new stone: Position the new stone in the same orientation as the old one. Lower it slowly and evenly into place. Make sure the stone sits flat and level.
- Adjust the stone with the adjustment tool: Use the stone adjustment tool to fine-tune the stone's position, ensuring it is flush with the oven floor and aligned properly. Check that there are no gaps between the stone and the oven walls.
- Reinstall the landing bay protective screen: Put the protective screen back in place. This screen protects the landing bay area from heat and debris. Verify the screen is secure before using the oven.
