Overview

This genuine OEM igniter electrode (part 1179966) fits the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS240HEFA0AAAA gas furnace. The igniter is energized at the start of each heat cycle and heats rapidly to ignite the burner gas. A failed igniter is one of the most common causes of no-heat calls: when it cracks or burns out, the furnace will not light, typically locking out after several failed ignition attempts. Igniters are brittle and degrade with every cycle, so replacement is routine maintenance on older systems.

My furnace won’t ignite. What part is bad?

Is this igniter compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many ICP parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP igniter?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
