How to Replace the Glass on a KitchenAid Superba KERC507HWH2

The Kitchenaid Superba KERC507HWH2 is a ceramic-glass-top range designed for residential use. The burners are beneath the sheet of glass on the top of the range. The glass cooktop can become discolored or cracked from exposure to adverse conditions such as heavy weight or pressure. You can remove the ceramic glass of the cooktop and replace it with a new part to restore your Kitchenaid oven to its original condition.
