Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter (part #1179966, "Ignitor Electrode") is the factory ignition component for the gas-heat section of the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS303LTEA0AAAA packaged gas/electric unit. On a call for heat, the control board sends voltage to the igniter, which heats to a glowing temperature and ignites the gas at the burners. Igniters are brittle and degrade with every heating cycle — they crack, develop hairline fractures, or simply stop glowing, which is one of the most frequent causes of no-heat service calls. Installing a fresh OEM igniter restores fast, reliable ignition.
