The Bard S501-197 Burner Partition Assembly is an OEM internal sheet metal component used in the burner section of select Bard wall-mounted gas/electric HVAC units to separate and shield the combustion area from adjacent compartments. A properly fitted burner partition helps maintain correct airflow paths and heat containment around the burner and heat exchanger area, supporting reliable ignition and stable heating performance. If your existing partition is warped, rusted, or damaged from service work, replacing it with the correct Bard S501-197 assembly helps restore the factory intended burner compartment layout and clearances for safe operation and proper service access.
