This pressure-sensing switch monitors airflow from the combustion blower and sends a signal to the control board confirming that adequate draft is present before allowing the burner to fire. It is a safety-critical component that prevents ignition under unsafe venting conditions. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this switch during routine service calls or fault-code diagnostics on AO SMITH water heating equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blower prover switch is typically installed in residential gas water heater applications where a powered combustion blower is part of the flue or draft system. It is wired into the low-voltage control circuit and operates as a proving interlock that must close before ignition can proceed. Replacement is commonly required when the unit logs a pressure switch fault code or when the switch fails an open-circuit continuity test during troubleshooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProves combustion blower operation before allowing burner ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrates into the low-voltage safety control circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM replacement part for AO SMITH gas water heater systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to maintain safe draft and venting verification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement blower prover switch for AO SMITH gas water heaters equipped with a powered combustion blower assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician familiar with gas appliance controls. Shut off gas supply and disconnect power to the water heater before removing any components.
