Description

This gas valve assembly controls the flow of gas to the appliance burner so the unit can ignite and heat reliably. It replaces a worn or failed gas control to restore normal burner operation and safe ignition response. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the burner(s) as commanded by the appliance controls
• Helps ensure reliable ignition and consistent heating performance
• Can cause no-heat or intermittent ignition when it fails
• A faulty valve may lead to burners that won't light or that stay off despite calls for heat

What's included: One gas valve assembly. Install notes:

• Turn off gas supply and electrical power before servicing; verify both are off.
• Only install where gas appliance work is permitted; follow local codes.
• Check all fittings for leaks after installation using a non-corrosive leak solution or approved leak detector.
