Good Original Rheem AP13197-1 TRD Thermal Release Device Combustion Shutoff

Description

Good original part which was removed from a water heater that was changed due to a water leak. These TRD Thermal Release Devices came with several different part numbers, each one with a different temperature rating. This part is fully intact and is in the same condition as a new one. It is not bent and has no cracks or damage. These units do not wear out, they are a one-time safety device. This is the part that holds the spring loaded rod down which holds the flapper open that allows the combustion air in for the flame. If this device gets too hot it breaks and the flapper snaps shut, disabling the heater. A dirty inlet screen inside the bottom of the combustion chamber or actual flammable vapors being drawn in can cause this to break. If your device has failed MAKE SURE you correct the problem that caused it before installing this part, otherwise this one will break also. Used in Rheem, Ruud, Richmond, GE and other brands. The photos are of the actual item I am selling. Guaranteed to fit and work. The price includes free shipping. I may use USPS, UPS or FedEx depending on where it is being shipped to. FedEx sometimes takes 1 day longer, in case this is an issue. NOTE, there have been no delivery date guarantees lately due to the shipping industry overload.
To insure your safety, a professional technician should install this part and verify the proper operation of your equipment.
