The Hired Hand 6450-0094 Flame Probe is a 2.25-inch new-style flame-sensing rod used in Hired Hand Super Saver XL heaters manufactured from about 2005/2006 to current models. Designed for 120V systems, this flame probe plays a key role in safe heater operation by confirming that a burner flame is present during the heating cycle.
If the probe does not detect a flame, it signals the control module to shut off the gas supply immediately. This prevents unburned gas from entering the heater or building, offering crucial safety protection in agricultural environments.
Its 2.25" length and updated design make it the correct replacement for newer Hot Surface Ignition (HSI) Super Saver XL heaters, including common sizes such as 75K and 225K BTU units. Replacing a worn or malfunctioning flame probe helps restore reliable ignition monitoring and keeps your heater running safely.
