Product Overview
The Rheem SP20174K is a high altitude orifice designed for use with liquid propane (LP) gas systems at elevations between 5,001 and 8,000 feet. This genuine Rheem replacement part ensures proper fuel delivery and combustion performance in elevated altitude environments where standard orifices may not function correctly.
Key Features
- Altitude Range: Engineered specifically for installations at elevations of 5,001 to 8,000 feet
- Fuel Type: Compatible with liquid propane (LP) gas systems
- OEM Part: Genuine Rheem replacement component for reliable, manufacturer-approved performance
- Part Number: SP20174K
Why a High Altitude Orifice Is Necessary
At higher elevations, the reduced air pressure affects the air-to-fuel mixture in gas appliances. A standard orifice calibrated for sea-level or low-altitude use can result in improper combustion, reduced efficiency, and potential safety concerns when used at elevations above 5,000 feet. The Rheem SP20174K is precisely sized to compensate for these atmospheric differences, ensuring safe and efficient operation at altitudes between 5,001 and 8,000 feet.
Important Notes
- This orifice is intended for LP (liquid propane) gas only — do not use with natural gas systems
- Designed for installations within the 5,001–8,000 foot elevation range
- Installation should be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with local codes and Rheem guidelines
