CT36E/U

Wolf CT36E/U Flush-Top Electric Cooktop Service

Most common issues on this model

  1. An element that takes forever to heat, or never does
  2. A dead cooktop with every element out together
  3. Glass that has chipped at an edge or cracked across
  4. Continuous heat from an element that should cycle

Flush with the counter and 36 inches wide, the CT36E/U is the unframed twin of the CT36E/S. Underneath, the radiant elements and legacy CT parts are the same, so most repairs run the same either way.

Where they differ is the glass. An unframed piece has no metal edge to protect it, and edges are where chips tend to start. A chip on a cooktop this large leaves more surface exposed to heat than on a smaller CT model, so we do not recommend using it until it is looked at.

Heating problems follow the usual rules: one slow element is a local issue, while several dark ones suggest the control. The label spells this model CT36E/U, and we use that spelling when we look up parts. You get a written price before we start, and our workmanship warranty lasts 30 days.

Key features

CT36E/UCT36E/U questions
My CT36E/U has a small chip at the edge. Can I keep using it?

We would not. Heat keeps flowing beneath damaged glass, and chips can spread. Turn off the affected area and call us. We will price glass replacement in writing before starting.

Is the unframed CT36E/U serviced differently from the framed one?

The electrical side is the same. The difference is the glass and how it sits at the counter. We note the unframed style so the right pieces are ordered.

Why do you ask for the label on the CT36E/U?

Legacy parts vary by model and trim. The label gives us the exact designation, so we order against the CT parts list and avoid a part that only looks similar.
