Can someone give a brief tutorial on Rheem Gas
I've installed a couple 50 gal Performance Platinum gas heaters. Plug in the cord, flip the switch and they start like magic. What is the ignition source in these? Q&A's on the HD site says they will work with the power out. If so, what does the power do? Just confused.

Thanks, guys. I thought I had lost all cognitive reasoning. Logic told me that the reason for power was elimination of the standing pilot, but the HD replies left me wondering. Is that damper at the top of the flue powered or thermally actuated? Never mind. Mike answered my question>
BTW the HD site has 4 answers to the question, all stating it will work without power.
