The Ignition Electrode on Your Burnham Boiler

The ignition electrode produces a high-voltage spark across a precise gap to light the gas. A worn, sooty, or misaligned electrode causes weak sparking, slow ignition, and lockouts.

On Burnham systems — including models such as Alpine, ES2, Series 2 — a failing ignition electrode often shows up as no heat or related symptoms. We diagnose it precisely and install the correct genuine Burnham part.
