Trying to source a reasonably priced Snap Disc

[skydmark1]

Hey all! I have a Travis industries Avalon AGP pellet stove. I need a snap disc for it. The POF switch is wonky and doesn't always work right. I've tested it with a blow dryer and it works about 50% of the time. I think I fried it last year during a period of cold weather where I didn't clean the stove out as often as I should have. Anyway, I digress.

The switch is listed as a Ceramic System Disc 120f NO which I believe means normally open? I've found the avalon switch but it's nearly $40 and I was hoping to source it cheaper than that. Does anyone know of a good place to get parts like this online? I could go to the dealer and might even be able to get it under warranty but if I can get it relatively cheap I'd rather just take care of it myself.

Have you tried Grainger?

I hadn't looked on grainger, but I just did. So here's a question then.

Will this part from grainger - http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/Snap-Disc-Control-6UED6

work the same as this part - http://www.stove-parts-unlimited.com/Lopi-and-Avalon-120-Degree-Ceramic-Snap-Disc-p/250-00313.htm

If the specs are close to the same, no reason it won't.

That stove is fairly new. You try talking to the dealer about a free replacement?

I bought my proof of fire snap switch from Gaingers for $23. I had to set up an account but once that was done, I'm set for life
