A thermocouple is a safety device that monitors the pilot flame and sends a small electrical signal to hold the gas valve open. If the pilot goes out, the signal stops and the valve closes, shutting off gas flow. This part is a direct replacement for failed or degraded thermocouples in the FG-30T30 Flameguard model and is installed by licensed plumbers or water heater service technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis thermocouple is specific to LP gas Flameguard water heaters in the FG-30T30 model line. It is suited for residential installations where the existing thermocouple has failed, causing pilot outage problems or nuisance shutdowns. Replacing a worn thermocouple is a common service call in water heater maintenance and restores proper pilot safety operation without requiring full unit replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement thermocouple for LP gas Flameguard water heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with FG-30T30 model Flameguard units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRestores pilot safety shutoff function when existing thermocouple fails\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM catalog number 100093813 ensures correct fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement thermocouple for AMERICAN WATER Flameguard LP gas water heaters, specifically the FG-30T30 model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water heater technician. Before beginning, shut off the gas supply at the manual shutoff valve and allow the unit to cool completely. The thermocouple connection at the gas valve is typically hand-tightened plus a quarter turn with a wrench — avoid overtightening, which can damage the valve seat. Verify proper pilot flame contact with the thermocouple tip after installation before restoring gas supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGas Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: LP Gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flameguard Water Heater\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Model\u003c\/strong\u003e: FG-30T30\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 035505627711\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: AMERICAN WATER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100093813\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AMERICAN WATER HEATERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138857992498,"sku":"100093813","price":117.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305534116.jpg?v=1778781528","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/american-water-100093813-thermocouple-lp-gas-flameguard","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
