Description
The Rinnai 104000240 is an OEM flame rod and electrode kit designed for Rinnai VC series appliances. This replacement kit restores accurate flame sensing and reliable ignition performance, helping to maintain safe, efficient operation of your Rinnai heating equipment.
Product Overview
The flame rod (also known as a flame sensor or sensing electrode) is a critical safety component in gas-fired appliances. It detects the presence of a burner flame via the flame rectification principle, signaling the control board that combustion is occurring. A worn or fouled flame rod can cause nuisance lockouts, ignition failures, or unsafe operation. Replacing it with a genuine Rinnai OEM kit ensures proper fit and function.

Why Replace Your Flame Rod?
Over time, flame rods can develop oxide buildup or physical damage that reduces their ability to sense the burner flame accurately. This can result in the control board shutting down the appliance as a safety precaution. Replacing the flame rod and electrode with a genuine Rinnai kit is a fast, cost-effective service repair that restores normal appliance operation.
