Most frequetly asked question:

Q: I bought another part (thermostat or safety valve or other) and now it doesn't work or fit. I thought it was supposed to work but it doesn't. What should I do?

 

A: Remember, the golden rule is to never give away, break or throw away high quality USA made antique stove original parts.

 

Originals are made to last (unless they were broken by prying them open to fix them). They are very high quality and can be rebuilt. Full rebuilds cannot be done by a novice. New replacements do not properly fit back into an antique stove. If you did not hold onto your original parts then attempt to go back to where you bought the new part and hopefully get back your antique original.

Then, what should have been done in the first place, Rebuild the Original. Original parts will fit right back on! No retrofitting expenses, will work because it was made specifically for your antique stove plus, they will last a long time too ... USA made highest quality!

A Real Blessing

Vicksburg, MS - Not even the Comstock Stove Company, who originally built this big commercial eight burner, double oven, circa 1940 stove, could restore the broken oven thermostats in this Christ Episcopal Church range. It seemed the only choice was to condemn the stove and buy a new one at a replacement cost of over $7,000.00. But, when Edward Habeeb read about our vintage thermostat rebuilding service in "Ask Anne and Nan", he decided to contact us to solve their unique problem. Ed sent us both antique oven thermostats, which were completely remanufactured back to original factory specifications. Then, with a few rebuilding suggestions, Ed, Jim Miller, Jack Barnes, Jim O'Brien, Allen Rooke and Mike Chaney completed the rest of the refurbishing themselves and saved their church a whopping $6,000.00!

Thermostat Rebuild a Success

for 1930s Range

Had the big holiday party on Saturday & our stove was

 a huge hit.”  

Dear Jack,

     Thanks, Jack, for your continued help with my stove project.  As always, you are quick to offer support.  A few weeks ago I was quite sure that my Bristol Universal, which I bought curbside for a mere $40, was going to end up in the garage beyond repair.  J.E.S. Enterprises was wonderful about helping me find a replacement for my 1930s stove.  Made a heck of a garlic & rosemary chicken the other night with oven browned potatoes. 

 - L. Apfelbeck, WI

     P.S. - Had the big holiday party on Saturday and the stove was a huge hit.  LOTS of folks eyed my Bristol-Universal with envy as we melted the Brie and heated water for Tom & Jerry's. Two women asked "So, where's the stove you really use?"  When I said the Bristol-Universal was the one and only, eyes lit up.  There may be more tribal members in Manitowoc soon.  :)

“Just wanted to give you guys a big American-Flag salute for helping me get our stove up and running.  My wife is so happy!” 

- R. Mellinger, MI

Thermostat Rebuilding for 

Domestic or Commercial Vintage Stove

 

If the temperature in your stoves' oven is erratic or no longer working correctly, dial won't turn, gas coming out of the front hub or, the sensor broken, it may be time to consider having an antique thermostat rebuild.

We Recommend to Hire a

Licensed Appliance Tech to Diagnose that

your thermostat is actually the problem.

There is No Return nor Refund on Antique Thermostat Rebuild Orders.

Full Rebuilds come with Guaranteed

Warranty Service which is good for

TWO full years on the majority of

Domestic thermostats.

We accept all major cards or PayPal.

Call (805) 643-3532 or e-mail toac@sbcglobal.net

 

ALL Thermostat Core Exchanges must be sent back within 30 days.

 Before sending any thermostat in for an Exchange Call (805) 643-3532 or e-mail toac@sbcglobal.net

 

Note:  Adjustment and Maintenance Information Now Available for

minor temperature fluctuations on thermostats

 

We can rebuild most thermostats from the 1920s – 1990s to original factory specifications. All parts are American made and of A-1 quality. Only certified technicians do all rebuilding. Each thermostat is leak-proofed, calibrated and oven tested. Once reinstalled in your stove, you may or may not need to have it readjusted due to the differences in oven construction.

If we rebuild your thermostat, we can provide free consultation to your technician by phone, the Internet, fax or mail in reference to removing or installing the unit. Depending on the make, you "may" be able to use the rest of your stove (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE OVEN). Look on the control body, either on the back or the side of the thermostat, and let us know what model or type number the control is. As soon as we get this information we can give you an estimate of the cost in rebuilding the unit.

Most new generic replacements that are available for a few old stoves come with a 90-day warranty. When we rebuild your original domestic thermostat, we give a 2 to 2-1/2 year warranty on parts and service since the original thermostat is always the best core to use and 1 year warranty for commercial stoves.

 

 

THEY'RE BACK!

Baked Biscuits from

ROBIN'S ROPER

 

Dear Jack,

Here is the picture of my stove and me. It took a long time to get up to the old homestead in the mountains of western MD, but I finally installed the Wilcolator thermostat you repaired for my Roper stove last October. I can tell you that the biscuits don't burn up in two minutes as they did before. I'm inspired to order some of your publications to help me to keep the stove alive and well in the future.

I find it amazing and wonderful that a modern technology - the internet, helped me find you in order to get some older technology for my stove. And thank goodness there is someone like JES that cares about these old stoves.

 

Thanks and Best regards, 

Robin Shoen
