Dynasty Oven Ignitors
No longer sold under the Dynasty name, the product line was manufactured by Jade Range Co., which still operates
and sells its ovens and ranges under the Jade Product Line. The Dynasty line is now limited to outdoor products,
offering what Jade calls an "a la carte outdoor cooking system that enables the customization of an outdoor
cooking center, working off of stainless steel modular bases that integrate with the company's series of
freestanding grills." Jade's rebranded stoves feature fully welded steel drip pans and flush mounted
commercial infrared broilers, as well as wrap-around oven racks and interiors the company says can accept
commercial sheet pans, even in the 36-inch model.
Dynasty's History
California-based Jade Range Co. was founded in 1975 and purchased by Maytag Co. in 1999. Valued at about $20
million, the deal served to help Maytag expand its home and commercial product lines. At the time of the
acquisition, Jade was still manufacturing the Dynasty brand as a residential product line, but the Dynasty
residential range line has been discontinued in the last five years.
Troubleshooting Dynasty Oven Ignitors
In 2001, Jade Products recalled more than 3,000 Dynasty-branded ranges because the igniters were built too far
from the burners, potentially causing a delayed ignition. As such, the resulting abnormal release of gas caused
fire to escape from the oven, a situation Jade said at the time resulted in three injuries. The recalled Dynasty
gas ranges are model numbers DGRSC and DGR(c), with serial numbers from 050198-A through 280200-Z. The serial
plate, which contains the model and serial numbers, is located under the right burner grate support on model
DGRSC, and under the left burner grate (on the left side wall) on model DGR(c). The burner grill must be removed
to see the serial plate. The ranges are 30-, 36-, 48-, or 60-inches wide. "Dynasty" is printed on the lower right
corner of the oven door. Burner ignitors for Dynasty ranges can be identified by letters--commonly "c,"
"s" or "m" igniters. The main oven igniter is labeled differently, an example of which can be located by
part #688692.
