OEM Carrier Hot Surface Igniter for Furnace PG95SAS60140DAAA

The hot surface igniter in your Carrier PG95SAS60140DAAA is the component that physically lights the gas burners. On a call for heat, the control board sends 120V to the igniter, which glows bright orange and ignites the gas as the valve opens. It is the single most common failure point in a modern furnace because the element is brittle and cycles through extreme thermal stress every time the furnace runs. When it cracks or burns out, you get a furnace that runs the inducer and blower but produces no heat — often the igniter never glows at all, or glows weakly and fails to light the gas, ending in a hard lockout after several tries. This OEM igniter is a silicon nitride element, the more durable successor to older silicon carbide igniters. Silicon nitride resists cracking and the carbon flaking that shortens carbide igniter life, and it matches the Carrier board's expected cold resistance (roughly 40-75 ohms) and current draw, so the timing and surface temperature are correct for reliable ignition. Why OEM matters: generic igniters are frequently lower-grade silicon carbide with wider resistance tolerances. If resistance is off, the element either won't reach ignition temperature (failed lights) or runs too hot and burns out prematurely. The genuine Carrier igniter is matched to your board's ignition sequence. Install difficulty: 2 of 5. Tools: 1/4" nut driver, gloves. #1 safety warning: shut off the gas supply and kill power at the breaker before servicing. Never touch the white ceramic element with bare fingers — skin oils create hot spots that crack it. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse on orders placed before 3 PM CST. Backed by a 1-year OEM warranty and 30-day hassle-free returns on uninstalled parts.

Compatibility

This part is compatible with Carrier model PG95SAS60140DAAA. Always verify the part number against your unit's data plate before ordering.

Why Choose OEM?

OEM parts are manufactured to the exact factory specifications for your unit. Generic aftermarket alternatives may fit physically but often use lower-rated components that reduce equipment life and void manufacturer warranties. When the cost difference between OEM and generic is $10-30, the OEM part is always the smarter investment on a system worth $5,000-$15,000.

Shipping & Returns

Same-day shipping on orders before 3 PM CST. Standard delivery 2-5 business days, express options available at checkout. 30-day hassle-free returns on uninstalled parts — free return shipping included. 1-year OEM factory warranty coverage.
