Abstract
A burner assembly is provided that includes a burner pan having a peripheral portion adapted to engage a range top at the periphery of a burner opening and a sealed burner in central portion of the burner pan. A resilient elastic seal straddles the peripheral portion of the burner pan so as to be disposed between the burner pan and the range top and between the burner pan and the burner grate. The elastic seal retains the burner grate in position slightly above the range top and provides a seal to close the burner opening.
