Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100170634 Valve
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100170634 Valve is a critical OEM natural gas valve designed for high-recovery commercial and residential water heaters and boilers. Engineered for precision gas flow regulation, this replacement gas valve (frequently associated with Honeywell configurations like the WV8840 or VR8300 series frames) ensures optimal manifold pressure and combustion stability. As a veteran-grade HVAC replacement part, it is built to handle the high-demand cycles of Lochinvar boilers and A.O. Smith water heaters, maintaining the tight tolerances required by integrated control boards for safe ignition sequences. Utilizing a 24V or 120V actuator (depending on the specific application's voltage requirement), this commercial gas valve effectively manages the fuel-to-air ratio to maximize thermal efficiency. For contractors performing a system-wide furnace repair or water heater overhaul, verifying the model number on the existing gas train is essential, as this valve is a direct fit for the 100170634 specification, providing a rugged solution for gas valve troubleshooting and long-term reliability in the field.
Key Benefits- OEM Compatibility: Delivers a precise match for Lochinvar and A.O. Smith gas train assemblies, eliminating the need for field modifications.
- Optimized Gas Flow: Fine-tuned for natural gas applications to ensure consistent BTU output and reduced energy waste.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Designed to withstand high-cycling environments in commercial boiler rooms.
- Safety Integration: Features internal shut-off mechanisms that interface seamlessly with the unit's safety limit string.
Is the 100170634 compatible with Propane (LP) systems?
No, this specific part is a natural gas valve. For LP conversions, a manufacturer-approved conversion kit or a dedicated LP valve must be used to ensure safe manifold pressure.
What are the symptoms of a failing Lochinvar gas valve?
Technicians typically look for ignition failure, erratic burner flames, or "soft" lockout codes on the control board. If the solenoid does not click or if there is no manifold pressure during the ignition trial, the valve is likely compromised.
Do I need specialized tools for installation?
Yes, professional installation requires a calibrated manometer to verify the inlet and outlet (manifold) gas pressures according to the manufacturer’s rating plate.
