The pilot burner provides a continuous ignition flame that activates the main burner when the thermostat calls for heat. This component is a direct service part installed during routine maintenance or burner assembly replacement. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this type of component. Its 160 degrees F rating is a key specification for proper thermocouple and thermopile compatibility in the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pilot burner is suited for residential and light commercial natural gas water heater applications. It is used in standing pilot ignition systems where a continuously burning flame proves the pilot and enables main gas valve operation. Typical installation scenarios include warranty-period burner replacement, field troubleshooting of ignition failure, or full burner assembly service on natural gas storage water heaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for 160 degrees F operation for compatibility with standard pilot safety systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNatural gas fuel type for use in NG-only burner assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStanding pilot design provides continuous ignition flame for main burner activation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM part number ensures direct fitment in applicable AO SMITH water heater models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement pilot burner for AO SMITH natural gas water heaters that use a standing pilot ignition system rated at 160 degrees F.
