The Hot Surface Igniter on Your Laars Boiler

The hot surface igniter (HSI) is a silicon-nitride or silicon-carbide element that heats until it glows, igniting the gas at the burner. HSIs are fragile and degrade with each cycle; a cracked igniter is a very common no-heat cause.

On Laars systems — including models such as Mascot FT, Mascot HT, NeoTherm — a failing hot surface igniter often shows up as no heat or related symptoms. We diagnose it precisely and install the correct genuine Laars part.
