OEM Carrier Dual Pressure Switch Assembly HK06NB012 for Model PG96VAT42060BBAA

This is the OEM-specified Dual Pressure Switch Assembly (part number HK06NB012) for the Carrier PG96VAT42060BBAA 96% AFUE two-stage gas furnace. The pressure switch is a critical safety component that monitors inducer motor operation — it proves the draft inducer is running at the correct RPM and generating the proper negative pressure (vacuum) inside the flue before allowing the ignition sequence to proceed. When either pressure switch fails or a connected hose becomes cracked or blocked, the furnace control board will lock out the system and prevent ignition entirely, leaving your home without heat. Both switches in this assembly feature 2 wire terminals and one hose port each, exactly as designed from the factory.

• Specs: Dual pressure switch assembly | Two SPST switches included | Each switch: 2 wire terminals + 1 hose port | Factory-calibrated W.C. (water column) rating | Direct OEM replacement for Carrier PG96VAT42060BBAA
• OEM vs Generic: OEM pressure switches are factory-calibrated to the exact W.C. rating required by your furnace's inducer. Off-spec generic switches can trigger false lockouts in cold weather or — worse — fail to catch a true flue blockage, creating a carbon monoxide risk.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Power down the furnace at the disconnect before starting. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (to verify switch continuity). Label and photograph all hose and wire connections before removing the old assembly. Inspect inducer hoses for cracks while the panel is open.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.
