VIGORVIL PP236 Photocell Kit – Replaces Reddy Kerosene Heater Parts

The VIGORVIL PP236 Photocell Kit is a direct replacement for the original photocell assembly used in oil-fired heaters, ensuring reliable ignition performance for your kerosene heater. This kit is designed to fit heaters equipped with a hot surface ignitor (glow plug) and is compatible with a range of well-known brands, including DESA (Dayton, Knipco, Koehring, Master, Reddy, Remington, Sears, TSC) and PINNACLE (ProTemp, Master, Remington, Heat-Stream, WorkHorse, Heat). The kit replaces part numbers PP236, M16656-23, M1665623, M16656-24, M1665624, making it an ideal solution for maintaining or upgrading older heater models.

This photocell kit comes in its original packaging, ensuring it’s brand new, unused, and undamaged. The included wires measure 15″ in length, providing flexibility for installation. However, it’s important to note that this kit does not apply to DESA’s upper-tier heaters featuring a plastic handle and shroud over the fuel tank—those models require part number M16656-21 instead. The PP236 assembly is specifically designed to work with the 104068-02 ignition control boards found in compatible oil-fired heaters.

For reliable operation, this photocell kit is essential for heaters relying on a glow plug for ignition. Its compact and lightweight design (weighing just 18g) ensures easy installation without compromising performance. Whether you’re servicing a vintage heater or upgrading a second-hand model, this kit delivers the precision fit and functionality you need to keep your system running smoothly.
