A.o. Smith 100338896 Condensate Trap Gasket Epdm

Product Description

The A.O. SMITH 100338896 is an EPDM condensate trap gasket designed for use in condensing water heater and boiler applications. This gasket creates a watertight seal at the condensate trap assembly, preventing acidic condensate from leaking at the trap connection point. EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber is the appropriate material for this application due to its resistance to acidic condensate and wide temperature tolerance. Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians during routine maintenance, trap replacement, or system servicing.

This gasket is used in residential and light commercial condensing water heater systems where a condensate trap is required to collect and drain acidic condensate produced during high-efficiency combustion. It seats at the condensate trap interface to maintain a sealed drainage path. Replacement is commonly needed when the existing gasket shows signs of degradation, cracking, or leaking around the trap assembly.

Key Features

• EPDM rubber construction for resistance to acidic condensate
• OEM replacement part ensuring correct fit at the condensate trap assembly
• Compatible with the condensate trap system on A.O. SMITH condensing units
• Maintains a watertight seal to prevent condensate leaks at the trap connection

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Before servicing the condensate trap, shut off the appliance and allow the system to cool. Ensure the mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before seating the new gasket. Follow local plumbing codes and the manufacturer service documentation for proper reassembly procedure.
