4. Informacje dotyczące bezpieczeństwa

OSTRZEŻENIE: Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury, or loss of life. Read and understand these instructions completely before proceeding. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.

• Odłącz zasilanie: Always turn off the electrical power to the furnace at the main service panel before attempting any installation, maintenance, or service.
• Dostawa gazu: Ensure the gas supply to the furnace is turned off before working on the ignitor or burner assembly.
• Zachowaj ostrożność: The ignitor's heating element is fragile. Avoid touching the black silicon carbide element with bare hands, as oils from your skin can shorten its lifespan. Handle the ignitor by its ceramic base.
• Środki ochrony osobistej: Podczas montażu należy nosić odpowiedni sprzęt ochrony osobistej, taki jak rękawice i okulary ochronne.
• Sprawdź połączenia: Double-check all electrical and gas connections before restoring power and gas supply.
• Wykwalifikowany personel: If you are not comfortable performing this repair, contact a qualified HVAC technician.

5. Konfiguracja i instalacja

Follow these general steps for replacing your furnace's hot surface ignitor. Specific furnace models may have slight variations.

1. Przygotuj się do instalacji:
   • Turn off all electrical power to the furnace at the main circuit breaker or fuse box.
   • Wyłącz dopływ gazu do pieca.
   • Access the furnace's burner compartment. This usually involves removing an access panel.
2. Locate the Old Ignitor: The ignitor is typically located near the gas burners, often secured by one or two screws.
3. Disconnect the Old Ignitor:
   • Carefully disconnect the electrical plug from the old ignitor.
   • Remove the screws holding the old ignitor in place.
   • Gently pull the old ignitor out of its mounting bracket.
4. Install the New Ignitor:
   • Handle the new ignitor by its ceramic base only. Do not touch the black heating element.
   • Insert the new ignitor into the mounting bracket, ensuring it is correctly oriented.
   • Secure the ignitor with the screws removed earlier. A 1/4" socket and driver are often sufficient.
5. Podłącz okablowanie:
   • Connect the new ignitor's plug to the furnace's wiring harness. Ensure a secure connection.
   • If the original plug is damaged or the wires are too short, use the provided high-temperature ceramic wire nuts to make a secure, insulated connection.
6. Kontrole końcowe:
   • Sprawdź, czy wszystkie połączenia są dobrze dokręcone i bezpieczne.
   • Verify the ignitor is properly positioned and not touching any other components.
   • Replace any access panels removed earlier.
7. Przywróć zasilanie i gaz:
   • Turn on the gas supply to the furnace.
   • Przywróć zasilanie elektryczne pieca za pomocą głównego panelu serwisowego.
   • Initiate a heating cycle to test the new ignitor. Observe for proper ignition.

6. Działanie

When the thermostat calls for heat, the furnace control board sends voltage to the hot surface ignitor. The ignitor heats up rapidly to a very high temperature, glowing bright orange. Once the ignitor reaches its optimal temperature, the gas valve opens, allowing gas to flow over the hot ignitor. The gas ignites, and the ignitor then typically de-energizes after a short period, allowing the flame sensor to take over monitoring the flame.

7. Konserwacja

Hot surface ignitors are generally maintenance-free components. However, regular furnace maintenance can help prolong their life:

• Roczna kontrola pieca: Have your furnace inspected annually by a qualified HVAC technician. They can check the ignitor's condition and overall furnace health.
• Czystość: Upewnij się, że obszar wokół zapłonnika i palników jest wolny od kurzu, zanieczyszczeń i przeszkód.
• Unikaj zanieczyszczeń: As mentioned, avoid touching the ignitor element with bare hands. If the element becomes contaminated with oil or dirt, it can lead to premature failure.

8. Rozwiązywanie Problemów

If your furnace is not igniting, the hot surface ignitor is a common point of failure. Here are some troubleshooting steps:

• No Glow: If the ignitor does not glow when the thermostat calls for heat, it may be faulty or not receiving power.
  • Check for power to the furnace.
  • Inspect wiring connections to the ignitor.
  • A qualified technician can test the ignitor's resistance (ohms) to confirm if it's open or shorted. A typical working ignitor will have a resistance between 40 to 75 ohms.
• Glows but No Ignition: If the ignitor glows but the gas does not ignite, there might be an issue with the gas supply, gas valve, or flame sensor.
  • Ensure the gas supply valve to the furnace is open.
  • Check if other gas appliances in your home are working.
  • The flame sensor might be dirty or faulty, preventing the gas valve from staying open.
• Zapłon przerywany: This could indicate a weak ignitor, a dirty flame sensor, or other control board issues.

Notatka: Many furnaces have diagnostic LED codes visible through a small window. Consult your furnace's specific manual for these codes.
