Ao Smith 100112653 Gas Control Valve Kit Propane

Product Description

The AO SMITH 100112653 is a propane gas control valve kit designed as a direct replacement component for water heater systems. The gas control valve regulates the flow of propane fuel to the burner assembly, managing ignition sequencing, temperature setpoint, and safety shutoff functions within the unit. This kit is intended for installation by licensed plumbers or qualified water heater service technicians familiar with gas-fired appliance repair and local code requirements.

This kit is rated for propane fuel service and is used in residential water heater applications where the original gas control valve has failed or requires replacement as part of a scheduled service. It is suited for installations where restoring factory-level fuel regulation and thermostat control is required. Technicians should verify the fuel type of the existing system matches propane before installation.
