it won't be down to grill heat, not unless it's very old, modern ovens

I've been looking for a replacement gas hob and have been looking at
user reviews on some web sites.Â* I've seen 2 reviews where the users
have said that placing a pan on the burner directs the flame towards the
control knobs which get hot! Form memory, these reviews were for hobs
nearer the top end of the price range.



And they were gas hobs you were looking at not electric ovens!
