The Flame Sensor on Your Rinnai Boiler

The flame sensor (flame-rectification probe) confirms a flame is actually burning. If it cannot detect flame, the control shuts the gas off within seconds. A dirty or failed sensor causes the boiler to light then drop out repeatedly.

On Rinnai systems — including models such as i-Series i090, i120, M-Series — a failing flame sensor often shows up as error 11 no ignition or related symptoms. We diagnose it precisely and install the correct genuine Rinnai part.
