Upgrade your water heater's performance with our advanced twin-flame pilot burner assembly. Engineered for residential and commercial applications, this replacement pilot burner delivers faster ignition, enhanced reliability, and universal compatibility with major gas water heater systems. Whether you're maintaining a furnace pilot burner or replacing a worn gas pilot burner, this dual-flame design ensures consistent, efficient operation for both natural gas (NG) and propane (LPG) installations.
✔ 30% Faster Ignition with Twin-Flame Technology
The innovative 2-flame pilot hood design accelerates heat generation, cutting your water heating wait time in half compared to traditional single-flame standing pilot burner systems.
✔ Automatic Safety Shutoff Protection
Integrated flame sensor technology prevents dangerous gas leaks by instantly shutting off gas flow if the pilot flame extinguishes—a critical safety feature for any gas burner pilot assembly.
✔ Universal Compatibility Across Leading Systems
This pilot gas burner fits seamlessly with multiple water heater configurations, eliminating the frustration of searching for brand-specific parts. Compatible with standard gas pilot stove and boiler pilot burner installations.
Eliminates Frequent Pilot Light Failures
Stop dealing with constant relighting. Our durable construction maintains stable flames even in drafty environments—a common issue with older gas stove pilot lights.
Simple DIY Installation
No plumber required. Basic screwdriver installation connects directly to existing gas lines. Works with standard 1/4" and 3/8" gas inlet configurations common in furnace pilot burner systems.
Extended Component Lifespan
Premium materials resist corrosion and thermal stress better than factory-installed parts, reducing replacement frequency for your pilot burner and main burner assembly.
Specification | Details |
Construction Materials | Stainless steel body, cast iron mounting bracket, copper gas tubing |
Fuel Compatibility | Natural Gas (NG) / Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) |
Pilot Hood Configuration | Dual-flame (2 flames) design |
Gas Inlet Size | Standard 1/4" NPT thread (adapter included for 3/8" connections) |
Flame Sensor Type | Thermocouple-compatible (thermocouple sold separately) |
Operating Temperature Range | -40°F to 180°F (-40°C to 82°C) |
Certifications | ANSI Z21.20 compliant, CSA certified for North American installations |
Mounting Style | Universal bracket fits most water heater chassis |
Package Includes | Pilot burner assembly, mounting hardware, installation guide |
This versatile pilot burner serves multiple gas appliance types:
Residential Water Heaters: Tank-style gas water heaters (30-80 gallon capacity)
Commercial Boiler Systems: Low-pressure boiler pilot burner applications
Furnace Installations: Central heating furnace pilot burner assemblies
Gas Stoves: Standing pilot gas stove conversions (consult local codes)
Industrial Equipment: Process heaters and gas-fired ovens
Note: Always verify gas type (NG vs. LPG) and inlet size before installation. This pilot for burner systems is not compatible with electronic ignition-only models.
What You'll Need:
Adjustable wrench or 7/16" socket
Flathead screwdriver
Thread sealant (gas-rated)
Safety gloves
Installation Steps:
Shut Off Gas Supply - Turn main gas valve to OFF position
Remove Old Pilot Assembly - Disconnect gas line and thermocouple connections
Clean Mounting Area - Remove debris from burner chamber
Install New Pilot Gas Burner - Secure mounting bracket and connect gas line with thread sealant
Attach Safety Sensor - Connect thermocouple or thermopile (if equipped)
Test for Leaks - Apply soapy water to connections before igniting
Adjust Flame Height - Set pilot flame to 1/2" to 3/4" height using adjustment screw
Maintenance Tips:
Inspect pilot burner in furnace or water heater quarterly for carbon buildup
Clean gas fireplace pilot and burner orifices annually using compressed air
Replace thermocouple every 3-5 years for optimal safety performance
Q: How do I know if my pilot burner needs replacement?
A: Common signs include: pilot flame won't stay lit after releasing the control knob, yellow or orange flame color (should be blue), weak flame that doesn't reach the thermocouple, or excessive soot buildup around the gas stove pilot area.
Q: What's the difference between NG and LPG pilot burners?
A: Natural gas (NG) pilot burners have larger orifice openings due to lower gas pressure. Propane pilot burner models feature smaller orifices for higher-pressure LPG fuel. This universal model includes adjustable orifices for both fuel types—verify your gas type before installation.
Q: Can I use this with my standing pilot stove or only water heaters?
A: While designed primarily for water heaters, this pilot assembly works with any standing pilot burner system using standard gas connections. However, always check local building codes before modifying gas stove pilot lights or cooking appliances.
Q: Do I need a professional to install this gas pilot burner?
A: Homeowners comfortable with basic tools can complete installation in 30-45 minutes. However, if you're unfamiliar with gas line work or local codes require licensed installation, contact a qualified technician. Improper installation of any gas burner pilot creates serious safety hazards.
Q: Will this work with my thermocouple safety system?
A: Yes. This pilot burner assembly is designed to work with standard thermocouples and thermopile safety sensors. The flame positioning ensures proper sensor heating for reliable gas shutoff protection—essential for any propane pilot burner or natural gas installation.
Q: How long does a pilot burner typically last?
A: With proper maintenance, expect 8-12 years of service life. Factors affecting longevity include water quality (for water heater installations), combustion air quality, and fuel type. LPG pilot burner systems may experience slightly faster wear due to higher combustion temperatures.
