It regulates the temperature of the water by controlling the supply of natural gas to the burner assembly. When the water temperature drops below the set point, the thermostat signals the gas valve to open, allowing gas to flow to the burner. Once the desired temperature is reached, the valve closes to conserve energy and prevent overheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis part is intended as a direct OEM replacement for select \u003cstrong\u003eRheem natural gas water heater models\u003c\/strong\u003e.
