Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know if my orifice needs replacement?
- Signs include weak or yellow flame, delayed ignition, furnace cycling on and off unexpectedly, or a hissing sound. Orifices can become clogged by sediment or damaged by thermal stress over time.
- Is the #50 orifice the correct size for my furnace?
- The #50 is a common size for Atwood Hydro Flame furnaces, but verify your furnace model and current orifice marking before ordering. Installing the wrong size will affect heating performance and fuel efficiency.
- Can I install this myself?
- Yes, orifice replacement is a straightforward DIY task for most RV owners. Turn off propane at the tank, locate the burner assembly, and unscrew the old orifice. Screw in the new one by hand—do not overtighten. If you're uncomfortable working with propane systems, consult an RV technician.
