There's no other furnace component that's more vital than a furnace burner. When you think of a furnace system, this is the first thing that comes to mind.
It converts gaseous or liquefied fuel into actual heat. The system can transport this heat throughout the ductwork attached to the equipment. Properly functioning burners are vital to the rest of a heating network. Quality burners are also an essential consideration for anyone attempting to raise the efficiency of an existing furnace.
Since better burners can convert fuel into heat at a much higher temperature, their usage can translate into significantly reduced energy consumption. The group here at Furnace Part Source always recommends a closer look at the burners attached to your system or that of a client.

Several significant advances have been made in the field of furnace burner design, and engineering teams from Rheem have been highly progressive when it comes to adapting these new technologies. Their AS-60993-84 burner retrofit kit allows technicians to install a new set of burners in an existing furnace to restore it to working order while taking advantage of a well-built modern piece of equipment. In some cases, this helps reduce the fuel a stove uses.
Lochinvar and A.O. Smith have also brought replacement parts onto the market, designed to adhere to the specifications people would expect from more modern pieces of equipment. For instance, the 100109928 LP pilot burner can be a drop-in replacement for part #9004542215. Technicians have to power down the current furnace, put it in a safe state, and then replace the old pilot light with the one from this kit.
Boiler burners are a more conventional device with a long industry history, but they've also seen some upgrades. RBI's 70-2214 boiler burner is as modern as they come. It's designed with durability, offering a reasonably long service life. That's made it n attractive option for those with boilers attached to a commercial-grade HVAC system that operates in a larger facility.
While they might not necessarily receive ratings based on a specific outside standard, most burners do come with a complete specification list. Those who want the most efficient option are encouraged to look into a more recent device. Why? There's a good possibility that newer burners will outperform their existing unit.
Those replacing a burner should find that even if a new model doesn't exceed their initial specifications, it should at least match it. Over time, burners start to accumulate debris that should generally get removed.
Eventually, though, they can become riddled with pits. Replacing a burner with a similar model could translate into some energy savings.
