Additional Information

The water heater burner (part number 186063-000) generates the heat necessary to warm water inside the tank. It ignites the gas supply, producing a controlled flame that efficiently heats the water and maintains a consistent hot water supply for household use.

A faulty or worn-out burner can cause several performance issues, including:

  • Water heater isn?t heating properly: A malfunctioning burner may fail to generate enough heat, leading to lukewarm or cold water.
  • Yellow or flickering flame: A dirty or faulty burner can cause improper combustion, reducing heating efficiency.
  • Soot buildup or strange odors: Incomplete combustion may result in soot accumulation or gas-like smells.
  • Delayed or no ignition: If the burner fails to ignite, the water heater won?t function properly.

To restore efficient heating, replace the burner with this high-quality part. After installation, inspect all gas supply line connections carefully to prevent leaks and ensure safe operation. Check the flame color and stability to confirm proper combustion. If you detect any irregularities, adjust the burner or seek professional assistance.

For safety, turn off the gas supply and power to the water heater before beginning the replacement. Use appropriate tools and protective gloves to complete the installation securely.

Installing a new burner improves heating efficiency, ensures a steady hot water supply, and extends the lifespan of your water heater.

Perfect fit, pretty easy to install
January 18, 2022

I noticed a large Crack in my old burner while replacing the door assembly. This burner fit perfectly and mostly stopped the banging noises coming from the heater while it was on. It was a pretty easy install for me. Just remember safety first, turn off gas to the heater before you start.

Very easy to DIY

Due to moisture factors and heat, these burners have a tendency to deteriorate, and so you might want to inspect on a semi-annual basis. Replacing these burners before the bottom ring-heat shield breaks, can save you lots of money in repairs that a DIYer may not be able to do.
