It works by slowing the passage of hot combustion gases, allowing more heat energy to be transferred to the water before the gases exit through the vent. This improves overall thermal efficiency and helps maintain optimal appliance performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Compatibility Notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis part is intended for use with specific \u003cstrong\u003eRheem models\u003c\/strong\u003e.
