Part Overview
The Rheem SP20175R is a genuine OEM replacement high altitude natural gas orifice engineered specifically for use at elevations between 5,001 and 8,000 feet above sea level. This precision-manufactured component ensures your Rheem appliance operates safely and efficiently in high altitude environments where standard orifices may not perform adequately.
Key Features
- Fuel Type: Natural Gas (NG)
- Altitude Range: 5,001 – 8,000 feet above sea level
- OEM Part Number: SP20175R
- Brand: Rheem
- Designed as a genuine Rheem replacement part for accurate fit and reliable performance
Why a High Altitude Orifice Is Necessary
At higher elevations, the air is less dense, which affects the air-to-fuel mixture required for proper combustion. A standard orifice designed for lower altitudes will allow too much gas to flow, resulting in an improper burn, reduced efficiency, and potential safety concerns. The SP20175R high altitude orifice is specifically sized to compensate for reduced atmospheric pressure at elevations between 5,001 and 8,000 feet, maintaining proper combustion performance and appliance safety.
Important Notes
- This orifice is designed for Natural Gas only — do not use with propane (LP) gas systems
- Intended for use at altitudes of 5,001 to 8,000 feet — verify your elevation before installation
- Installation should be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with local codes and manufacturer guidelines
- Always verify compatibility with your specific Rheem model before purchasing
