Triangle Tube Trimax ignitor

Just wanted to share with fellow contractors and Triangle Tube owners.

I installed a bunch of Triangle Tube boilers a few years ago, had very good luck with them.

I purchased the service kit for both the Prestige Solo and the Prestige Solo Trimax. In the past I would order and keep mutiple ignitors for these models.

Used up my last one the other day, went to order on my phone from SupplyHouse. Supply house shows the item as discontinued with no options.

PTRKIT 313 which replaced PTRKIT 113 some years back.

Spoke to Triangle Tube, received a tech bulletin which I will try to link.

To replace an ignitor now, you must replace control board, spark generator, and ignitor.

Part number for Prestige Solo Trimax 60 and 110 is: PTRKIT 301

    What a PITA. I never installed Triangle Tube equipment. The closest thing to a Triangle Tube item I ever installed is that old original Weil McLain Plus 30 and Plus 40 Indirect because they offered the lifetime warranty. Switched to Buderus Indirect at some point, then I went to Crown Boiler Indirect.

    Worked on some Triangle Tube stuff others installed, Not a real fan.

    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    Thats a whopper of a material cost for a simple igniter.

    The new igniter requires that the ignition update was already performed. If it hasn't been you would still need to purchase the upgrade kit
