OEM Carrier Combination Gas Valve 24V 1/2" NPT 3.5" WC for Model PG8JAA042090ABJA

This is the genuine OEM combination gas valve — part number EF32CW210 — factory-specified for the Carrier PG8JAA042090ABJA gas furnace. The combination gas valve is the heart of your furnace's fuel delivery system: it receives the 24V signal from the control board, opens to allow natural gas flow to the burners, and maintains precise outlet pressure at 3.5" W.C. for safe, efficient combustion. When this valve fails, the furnace will attempt ignition but receive no gas, triggering a lockout fault — resulting in a complete no-heat condition. Common failure signs include the igniter glowing but no flame establishing, error codes related to ignition failure, or the inducer running with no subsequent gas flow.

• Specs: 24V AC coil voltage | 50/60 Hz | Natural gas | Outlet pressure: 3.5" W.C. | Inlet/Outlet: 1/2" NPT | Single-stage combination valve | Replaces OEM cross-reference 36J24-618
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM valve, factory-built to exact pressure tolerances and electrical specifications. Aftermarket gas valves frequently deviate from the rated outlet pressure, causing nuisance lockouts, flame instability, or unsafe over-firing. OEM is the only recommended choice for a safety-critical gas component.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Gas valve replacement requires shutting off the gas supply, depressurizing the line, and disconnecting the wiring harness and manifold. Tools needed: adjustable wrench, pipe thread sealant (yellow PTFE tape), multimeter, and a manometer for pressure verification after installation. Licensed gas technician recommended in most jurisdictions.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed as a direct OEM replacement for the Carrier PG8JAA042090ABJA gas furnace. Also cross-references to Bryant and Payne furnace applications using part 36J24-618. Confirm your data plate lists the EF32CW210 or 36J24-618 before ordering. Note: this valve is approximately 7/8" longer than some original configurations — a black metal nipple or coupling may be required for a flush fit. Questions about fitment?
