When your Englander multi-fuel pellet stove refuses to light, the igniter is often the culprit. The PU-CH6 cartridge igniter heater assembly is the direct OEM-style replacement that restores reliable auto-ignition to your stove -- no guesswork, no adapters. At 525 watts and 120V, it delivers the heat output needed to ignite wood pellets or multi-fuel blends quickly and consistently.
The PU-CH6 igniter assembly is engineered as a cartridge-style drop-in replacement for the igniter heater found in several Englander multi-fuel pellet stove models. It uses female spade connectors for a straightforward plug-in installation -- no soldering, no wire splicing. If your stove is failing to ignite on the first cycle, taking multiple attempts to light, or throwing an igniter fault code, replacing this cartridge is typically the first and most cost-effective repair step.
Also sold and sourced under the NBK Parts number 20096K -- if you have been cross-referencing NBK parts catalogs, this is the same component.
High-wattage ceramic heating element reaches ignition temperature rapidly, reducing warm-up cycles and improving first-light reliability for pellet and multi-fuel blends.
Compact 7-3/8" cartridge format slides directly into the igniter port. No cutting or fabrication required for compatible Englander stove models.
Pre-terminated with female spade connectors that mate directly to the OEM wiring harness, making this a true plug-and-play replacement.
Engineered to match original Englander specifications for compatible models. Matches the 3/8" cartridge diameter of the factory igniter for a secure, rattle-free fit.
The igniter heater assembly is a wear item in any pellet stove. Most igniters last several heating seasons, but repeated thermal cycling eventually causes the heating element to fail or degrade. Common signs of a failing igniter include: the stove not lighting automatically, extended pre-heat cycles, error codes related to ignition, or visible cracking or discoloration on the cartridge body. Replacing the igniter is typically a straightforward DIY repair that takes 15--30 minutes.
