The Viessmann 7828718 is a genuine ignition and ionisation electrode block designed for use in Viessmann WB1B boiler models. This combined assembly performs two critical roles within the boiler’s combustion process: initiating ignition and continuously monitoring flame presence to ensure safe operation.
During a call for heat or hot water, the boiler’s control system energises the ignition electrode, generating a high-voltage spark that ignites the gas-air mixture at the burner. Once combustion is established, the ionisation electrode detects the presence and stability of the flame by measuring a small electrical current passing through it. This signal is fed back to the control unit, confirming safe ignition.
If the flame is not detected or becomes unstable, the system immediately shuts off the gas supply and initiates a lockout condition. This safety mechanism prevents unburnt gas from accumulating within the appliance, making the electrode block a vital component in the boiler’s safety circuit.
As a combined unit, the ignition and ionisation electrodes are precisely positioned within a single block to ensure accurate spark gap and reliable flame sensing. Over time, the electrode tips can wear, accumulate deposits, or suffer from thermal stress, leading to weak ignition, intermittent flame detection, or fault codes.
Replacing the electrode block with a genuine Viessmann part restores proper ignition performance and ensures accurate flame monitoring, helping maintain efficient and safe boiler operation.

Standard delivery for all orders over £150 ex-VAT are free of charge.
If we can speed this up, we will, but you can also select Express Delivery when you check out and get your purchase more quickly (usually the next working day, subject to a 1pm cut-off): there is an extra charge for this ranging from £5 to £29.99 depending on the products you are buying.
We partner with several of the best UK carriers (such as TNT, Royal Mail, DPD etc) depending on the type of product and the warehouse it is coming from, and also with some pallet companies for larger items. All of these operate during normal Monday – Friday working hours, and we expect all deliveries to arrive in 5 days. For more details checkout this page.
For all Gledhill Cylinders, a flat delivery charge of £33.00 (ex-VAT) applies, regardless of order value or delivery method. This will be added automatically at checkout.
Having to return a product because it doesn’t fit, or is not what you wanted, is really annoying! To try and make sure this isn’t necessary we have lots of helpful advice on our site, and you should feel free to call our experts on the number above to check if you are in any doubt at all – we’re always happy to help.
But if you do, don’t worry, just contact us and we’ll get it sorted (note that for trade customers there may be a restocking fee). If you need it, we can usually arrange the carrier to pick it up.
