Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100163253 Kit
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100163253 Kit is a critical OEM replacement part designed specifically for Knight Model KBN285 and Armor AWN285 systems. As an essential component for high-efficiency condensing boilers and water heaters, this air inlet kit facilitates precise combustion air delivery to the burner assembly. This kit is engineered to maintain the technical integrity of the intake adapter and vent connections, ensuring the system operates within manufacturer-specified pressure parameters. By utilizing a factory-authorized Lochinvar 100163253 kit, contractors can ensure perfect physical alignment with existing PVC or CPVC air intake piping, preventing common combustion errors or airflow restrictions. For technicians performing annual service or emergency repairs, this direct-fit air inlet assembly eliminates the need for field modifications, preserving the unit’s original venting geometry and thermal efficiency ratings. Relying on genuine A.O. Smith parts ensures long-term reliability and peak performance for commercial and residential 285 series units.
Key Benefits- Direct Compatibility: Specifically engineered for Lochinvar KBN285 and AWN285 models for seamless installation.
- Optimized Airflow: Ensures the combustion air intake meets the exact volume requirements for high-efficiency burner operation.
- System Integrity: Prevents improper air-to-fuel ratios, helping to avoid blocked inlet error codes and nuisance shutdowns.
- Durable Construction: Built to withstand the temperature and environmental demands of a condensing boiler mechanical room.
Is the 100163253 kit compatible with other Knight series models?
This specific air inlet kit is technically sized for the 285 models (KBN285 and AWN285). Other BTU sizes in the Knight or Armor lines require different part numbers to match their unique blower and intake diameters.
What are the signs that my air inlet kit needs replacement?
Technicians should inspect the air intake adapter for cracks, brittle plastic, or seal failures. Common symptoms include fluctuating flame signals, soot accumulation, or the air pressure switch failing to prove during the pre-purge cycle.
Does this kit include the necessary gaskets for the adapter?
Yes, the Lochinvar 100163253 is a complete technical kit designed to provide all components required to restore a factory-sealed air intake connection.
