Ao Smith 100110275 Intellivent Gas Control Natural Gas

Product Description

The AO SMITH 100110275 is a White Rodgers Intellivent gas control thermostat designed for natural gas water heater applications. It combines thermostat and gas valve functions into a single unit, regulating gas flow to the burner based on set temperature. The control features a safe lighting sequence that allows pilot ignition without exposing the system to main burner gas flow. If the pilot flame fails at any point, the control performs a 100% gas shutoff, preventing unburned gas from entering the appliance. This unit is installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians servicing residential water heaters.

This gas control is used in natural gas water heater systems where a combination thermostat and gas valve is required. It is a direct service replacement for units requiring a 1.45 inch shank length. The control is suited for residential heating applications where reliable pilot-based ignition and fail-safe shutoff are required. Input specifies this unit replaces part number 184960-004, making it appropriate for systems originally equipped with that component.
