Questions about this item
How is the Rheem SP14218B igniter installed and what step do people often get wrong?
Shut off power and gas, remove the old igniter by its mounting bracket, then fit the new metal-and-ceramic unit without touching the ceramic surface — skin oils create hot spots that shorten its life.
What maintenance or replacement will the Rheem SP14218B igniter need later?
Inspect the ceramic element each heating season for cracks or white deposits; replace the igniter immediately if the ceramic is damaged or if the furnace fails to light after three ignition attempts.
