Description
The Lennox 20J91 is an OEM replacement flame sensor engineered to deliver precise and reliable flame detection in Lennox furnace systems. Designed as a direct factory-spec replacement, this sensor helps maintain safe and efficient furnace operation by accurately sensing the presence of a burner flame and signaling the control board to keep the gas valve open.
Why Replace Your Flame Sensor?
A worn or contaminated flame sensor is one of the most common causes of furnace short-cycling and no-heat calls. The sensor’s rod can accumulate oxidation over time, reducing its ability to conduct the microamp signal needed to verify flame. Replacing it with a genuine Lennox OEM part restores proper communication between the burner and the control board, preventing nuisance lockouts and unnecessary service calls.
