A flame rod works by completing a low-current electrical circuit through the burner flame, allowing the control board to verify ignition and maintain safe system operation. If flame is not detected within the trial-for-ignition period, the control shuts off the gas valve to prevent unburned fuel accumulation. This part is typically installed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified heating contractors during routine service or component-level repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 100110701 flame rod is suited for residential and light-commercial heating applications. It functions within the burner assembly, positioned to pass through or alongside the flame envelope during normal operation. Replacement is commonly required when the rod develops carbon buildup, corrosion, or cracking that degrades the microamp signal returned to the control board, causing nuisance lockouts or failed ignition sequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunctions as a flame-sensing electrode to confirm burner ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-current sensing design compatible with standard ignition control boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for heating system control applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM-style replacement for reliable signal integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement flame rod for AO SMITH heating equipment.

Shut off power to the unit and close the manual gas shutoff valve before beginning any service work. Inspect the flame rod mounting bracket and ceramic insulator for cracks or damage before reinstalling. Verify microamp flame signal at the control board after installation to confirm proper sensor function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: AO SMITH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100110701\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAILWIND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51149509820722,"sku":"100110701","price":77.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305988220.jpg?v=1778595817","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ao-smith-100110701-flame-rod-heating-control","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
