Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100224099 Rod
For high-efficiency gas-fired systems, the Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100224099 Ignitor Rod is a critical combustion component designed to ensure reliable arc-based ignition and flame verification. This OEM replacement part is engineered for precision in A.O. Smith Cyclone water heaters and Lochinvar Knight modulating condensing boilers, providing the consistent spark ignition necessary to initiate the burner cycle. As a genuine 100224099 ignitor, it features high-grade ceramic insulation and a durable alloy rod capable of withstanding the thermal stress of high-output commercial and residential applications.
Field technicians frequently specify the 100224099 flame sensor and ignitor to resolve recurring ignition failures or "soft lockout" error codes. Because this rod acts as both an electrode and a sensing probe, it must maintain a clean surface to ensure a proper DC microamp (µA) signal to the integrated control board. A signal drop below 1.0 µA often indicates carbon buildup or ceramic fatigue, requiring a direct swap with this HVAC replacement ignitor to restore peak system performance and meet factory safety parameters.
Key Benefits- Dual-Function Component: Operates as both a high-voltage spark electrode and a flame rectification probe for precise combustion control.
- Broad Compatibility: Direct fit for multiple 100224099-equipped models, including Lochinvar Knight and A.O. Smith commercial water heaters.
- OEM Reliability: Manufactured to exact tolerances to ensure the correct gap and orientation within the burner assembly.
- Fast Response: Minimizes delayed ignition and system rattling by providing a hot, instantaneous arc.
Is the 100224099 ignitor rod a universal part?
No. While it fits many Lochinvar and A.O. Smith models, always verify the specific part number in your unit's service manual to ensure the rod length and mounting bracket align correctly.
How do I know if the ignitor needs to be replaced?
If you observe a consistent ignition failure code or if the rod shows significant oxidation, pitting, or cracks in the ceramic insulator, a replacement is necessary for safe operation.
Can I clean this rod instead of replacing it?
Field cleaning with fine-grit abrasive material can temporarily restore signal, but if the alloy is severely degraded or the insulator is compromised, replacement is the only professional long-term solution.
