The hot surface igniter serves as the primary ignition component, generating the heat needed to light the main burner during each heating cycle. When the igniter fails, the burner will not light, resulting in no hot water. This kit provides the replacement igniter assembly needed to restore normal ignition function. Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or water heater service technician familiar with gas appliance repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis igniter kit is suited for residential and light commercial gas water heater applications where the original igniter has failed due to age, cracking, or normal wear. Hot surface igniters are consumable components with a finite service life and are among the most common service parts replaced during water heater maintenance and repair calls. Technicians should confirm the part number match against the unit nameplate before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement igniter kit for AO SMITH gas water heater applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRestores burner ignition function when original igniter has failed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot surface ignition design eliminates the need for a standing pilot\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKit format includes components needed for a complete igniter replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement igniter kit for AO SMITH gas-fired water heaters.

Shut off the gas supply and disconnect electrical power to the water heater before beginning any service work. Hot surface igniters are fragile ceramic components and must not be touched with bare hands during handling, as skin oils can shorten service life. Work should comply with applicable local codes and the manufacturer service documentation for the specific unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIgnition Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Igniter Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 100112851\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAILWIND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51150726431026,"sku":"100112851","price":72.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305989897.jpg?v=1778617036","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ao-smith-100112851-hot-surface-igniter-kit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
