The gas valve is a low-voltage controlled combination valve that meters gas flow into the combustion chamber and regulates manifold pressure for safe, efficient ignition. When it fails, the furnace will attempt ignition but produce no flame — often resulting in a lockout code — or will deliver insufficient heat output on one or both stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 VAC control voltage | 3.5\" w.c. outlet pressure | 1\/2\" NPT inlet × 1\/2\" NPT outlet | ~5\" valve body length | Two-stage operation (low\/high fire) | Natural gas standard; convertible to propane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM valves meet Carrier's exact factory pressure tolerances and agency listings.
