How to fix ULTRAFRYER F-P20-18 main burner not igniting?
- S
  Samantha AliAug 12, 2025
  If your ULTRAFRYER Fryer's main burner won't ignite but the blower is running, and there's no gas at the burner, first, check the blower air pressure switch by temporarily disconnecting the two ORANGE air switch wires and connecting them together. If the ignitor sparks when these wires are connected, the air pressure switch is defective and needs replacement. Also, inspect the gas control valve, hi-limit switch, and transformer; replace any that are defective.

  If the shortening temperature in your ULTRAFRYER Fryer is too high and breaks down quickly, verify the gas pressure as described in the manual. Additionally, check the calibration of the electronic thermostat using an accurate digital thermometer.

What to do if ULTRAFRYER F-P20-18 blower is not operating?
- A
  Alec TylerAug 19, 2025
  If your ULTRAFRYER Fryer's electrical power is on, but the blower isn't working, the blower may have overheated and shut off due to thermal overload. This should correct itself when the motor cools down, which usually takes 10-20 minutes. If the overheating continues, you should replace the blower motor.

Why is my ULTRAFRYER F-P20-18 Fryer pump/motor running but not pumping shortening?

  If your ULTRAFRYER Fryer pump/motor operates but doesn't pump shortening, check for congealed shortening in the shortening system. Also, inspect the standpipe/suction line coupler connection to ensure it is not loose.

What to do if filter pump motor won't operate on ULTRAFRYER Fryer?

  If the filter pump motor on your ULTRAFRYER Fryer won't operate when you place the Vat Shortening Return/Topside Shortening Lever in the OPEN position, ensure the filter pump micro-switch is working. Then, check the manual reset button on the filter pump motor. If the motor still doesn't operate after pressing the reset button, you may need to repair or replace the motor.

  If your ULTRAFRYER Fryer pump/motor hums but won't pump shortening, check for congealed shortening in the pump or shortening plumbing.

How to fix slow temperature recovery on ULTRAFRYER Fryer?

  If it's taking too long to heat the shortening to cooking temperature in your ULTRAFRYER Fryer, and the burner flames seem small, make sure the manual gas valve is fully open. Also, check for obstructions in the gas line and flue pipe. Verify the orifice plug has the correct drill size opening as specified in the operational requirements chart, and inspect the blower fins for damage. Finally, use a manometer to check the gas pressure at the gas control valve pressure tap, comparing it to the operational requirements chart. If needed, adjust the pressure regulator (clockwise to increase, counter-clockwise to decrease), and replace the adjustment cover.

Why is the shortening flow rate decreased while filtering in my ULTRAFRYER F-P20-18?

  If you notice a decreased shortening flow rate while filtering with your ULTRAFRYER Fryer, check for excessive sediment on the filter screen, standpipe suction fitting, or in the filter tub.
