Robertshaw Ignitor Hot Surface 41-411

The Robertshaw 41-411 is a hot surface ignitor for gas fired heating equipment.

Ignitor replacement is best approached as an opportunity to check the surrounding conditions rather than a component swap, because several of the things that shorten ignitor life are visible while the burner compartment is open.

Burner condition matters. Corroded or rust flaked burners produce uneven flame that can impinge on the ignitor. Debris in the burner ports produces the same effect locally.

Combustion air supply matters, since a starved burner burns poorly and produces deposits.

The heat exchanger's condition warrants a look while access is available, given that a burner compartment open for ignitor replacement is the same access required for inspection.

And the ignition sequence should be observed after the replacement is fitted: the ignitor should glow uniformly along the element, the burner should light smoothly across all ports promptly after the gas valve opens, and the flame should be stable and predominantly blue.

Observing that sequence takes a minute and confirms not only that the new ignitor works but that the appliance is burning correctly.

Handle the element by its base and protect it from shock during fitting.

Applications include residential and light commercial gas furnaces and heating appliances.
