The Carrier 318172-701 Gas Burner is a critical OEM replacement burner tube optimized for high-efficiency combustion in Carrier, Bryant, and Payne furnace systems. As an inshot burner, it is engineered to precisely mix fuel and air, producing a stable flame front that maximizes heat transfer while minimizing carbon emissions. This genuine Carrier HVAC part is constructed from high-grade, heat-resistant materials capable of withstanding the thermal stress of repeated ignition cycles in common residential gas furnaces. With dimensions of approximately 6 inches in length and a weight of 0.4 lbs, this 318172-701 burner assembly ensures a perfect fit within the combustion chamber, maintaining the original equipment’s performance specifications. For contractors, utilizing authentic Carrier furnace burners is essential for ensuring reliable ignition and preventing common issues such as delayed ignition or uneven heating. Replacing fouled or corroded furnace burner tubes with this factory-authorized part restores system efficiency and promotes appliance longevity.

• Precision-Engineered Combustion: Optimizes gas-to-air ratios for a clean, blue flame and maximum thermal output.
• OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed fit for Carrier, Bryant, and Payne gas-fired heating equipment, eliminating installation guesswork.
• Durable Material Composition: High-temperature alloy construction resists oxidation and scaling during heavy-load heating seasons.
• Serviceability: Standardized inshot burner design allows for quick removal and field replacement during routine maintenance.

Is the Carrier 318172-701 compatible with both LP and Natural Gas?
Yes, this replacement gas burner is designed to operate with either fuel source, provided the furnace orifices and gas valve are correctly configured for the specific gas type used in the application.

What are the signs that a furnace burner tube needs replacement?
Inspect for visible cracks, significant rust buildup, or "wavering" flames that indicate the internal venturi or burner ports are compromised, which can lead to inefficient combustion and increased CO levels.

Does this burner include the ignition electrode?
No, the 318172-701 is the individual burner tube. Ignition components like hot surface igniters or flame sensors are sold separately depending on the specific furnace model requirements.
