Rheem sp13418 Pilot Assembly Natural Gas

Product Description

The RHEEM sp13418 is a natural gas pilot assembly designed for use in gas-fired heating appliances. The pilot assembly serves as the ignition source for the main burner, maintaining a continuous or intermittent flame that signals the gas valve to open when heat is required. This component is an OEM-style replacement part intended for installation by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified gas appliance service professionals familiar with combustion systems and gas line work.

This pilot assembly is suited for residential gas heating applications where natural gas is the fuel source. It is typically found in standing-pilot furnace and water heater configurations where a continuous pilot flame is used to ignite the main burner. Installers should verify the fuel type and pilot bracket configuration match the existing system before installation.

Key Features

• Natural gas fuel type for compatibility with standard residential gas supply systems
• OEM-style replacement assembly for reliable fit and function
• Complete pilot assembly design simplifies service and reduces labor time

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified gas appliance service professional in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements.
