Our Expert's Opinion
"Vital for maintaining the safe operation of Ideal boilers by ensuring proper flame detection."Ideal 175592 Detection Electrode
Accurate flame detection is a critical safety function within any gas boiler, as it ensures gas is only supplied when combustion is confirmed. The detection electrode works continuously during burner operation, monitoring flame stability and responding instantly if the flame is lost. This protects against the risk of unburned gas entering the combustion chamber, supporting both user safety and appliance reliability. Consistent flame sensing also helps maintain smooth boiler operation by preventing unnecessary shutdowns or repeated ignition attempts.
Over time, detection electrodes can become contaminated with carbon deposits, suffer from wear, or experience signal degradation due to prolonged exposure to heat and combustion by-products. Common symptoms of a failing detection electrode include frequent ignition lockouts, the burner shutting down shortly after lighting, or intermittent fault codes related to flame failure. Replacing a worn electrode helps restore dependable flame monitoring, improves ignition reliability, and reduces stress on other components such as the gas valve and ignition system. Because this part directly influences gas safety, installation and adjustment should always be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer to ensure correct positioning, secure connections, and safe operation.
