Abstract
A flame insert for reducing the NO.sub.x emissions of a range top burner is disclosed. The flame insert comprises a rigid framework provided by disjuncted support members connected to a pair of ring members. The support members engage the burner head to mount and accurately position the ring members adjacent the burner ports for engaging the flames during combustion and reducing the peak flame temperature by radiating heat energy away from the flames.
