Oven doors may break for two primary reasons: the glass type selected and minor imperfections embedded within it.
Most ovens incorporate either tempered soda lime glass, which struggles with thermal fluctuations, or robust borosilicate glass.
Small defects, such as nickel sulfide inclusions, can trigger spontaneous shattering, especially during intense heat phases like self-cleaning cycles.
To avoid these issues, treat oven doors with care, refrain from using abrasive scrubbers or resting heavy items on them, and ensure that dishes inside the oven do not contact the glass.
Adopting straightforward measures, such as employing gentle cleaning tools and preventing sudden temperature changes, can greatly lower the chances of breakage, ensuring a safe kitchen environment and maintaining your oven’s functionality.
