| The
Honeywell Glowfly
Blows the Rest Away
Let me
tell you why the Glowfly is the newest and hottest universal hot surface igniter on the market
today
Personally I know how
discouraging it is to be on a job where it’s ten below outside with a wind
chill of twenty below on the coldest day of winter. You get a call from some
home owner with no heat, their hot surface igniter for the furnace is bad and the
hot surface igniter for that particular furnace happens to be the only type
that you didn’t stock on your truck, let’s see there’s only ten’s or it may
seem like hundreds of different types of furnaces out there and they all take
different types of hot surface igniters.So you
grab the universal hot surface igniter you have on your truck. The one you
think should work, only to find out that you can’t fit the universal igniter
where the old OEM one came out, maybe because it’s too tight or to difficult to
maneuver into place, and to top it off the burner wants to get in the way, and
last time I checked it’s not a good idea to try and move a burner. Yes my job
can be quite daunting when it comes to replacing one of these fragile unpopular
universal igniters. With that said it’s about time someone out there thought of
the little guy doing all the work for a change, yes Honeywell did all their
homework right and came up with a all in one igniter. They designed a no excuses
hot surface igniter that comes with six mounting brackets that are optimized to
replace over 110 igniter applications from nearly every furnace manufacture
without modification, it’s about as close as OEM that you will ever get with a
universal hot surface igniter. What’s even more appealing is that they made it
with tough silicon nitride, the hottest new technology in our industry giving
this new silicon nitride igniter twice the life as the old silicon carbide
igniters. I’m sure that will make a lot of my customer a lot happier. It’s not
like they don’t like seeing me, because alot of my customers really do like me,
it’s because every time they see me it cost them something. Because Honeywell
has made my job easer I can pass that on to my customer, it just takes me less
time to install the Glowfly, which means the customer pays less for the time it
takes to do the job and my labor. And don’t let me forget to mention, they
stand behind their product with one of the industry best three year warranties.
So that’s my story and I’m sticking to it and I give Honeywell an A+ for taking
their time and doing this one right. A quick note If there is any of you out
there that would like a little more technical information on this product Honeywell Glowfly please
