OEM Carrier Two-Stage Gas Valve 24V 3.5" W.C. for Model PG96VAT60100CCAA

This OEM two-stage combination gas valve is the factory-authorized replacement for the Carrier PG96VAT60100CCAA 96% AFUE variable-speed gas furnace. Originally supplied as Carrier part EF33CW206 (White-Rodgers 36J56-503), this valve has been superseded by EF33CW152 — a direct drop-in replacement that meets all original factory specifications. The gas valve is the gatekeeper of combustion: it receives a 24V signal from the integrated furnace control board and modulates gas flow in two stages (low-fire and high-fire) to match the heat demand called for by the thermostat. When it fails, the furnace will attempt ignition, the inducer will run, but gas will not flow — resulting in a no-heat lockout condition, repeated ignition attempts, or fault codes on the control board.

• Specs: 24 VAC coil voltage | 3.5" W.C. outlet pressure (natural gas) | 1/2" inlet × 1/2" outlet | Approx. 5" valve body length | Two-stage (low-fire / high-fire) operation | Convertible for LP/propane use
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Part (FAP), manufactured to exact OEM tolerances for the PG96VAT60100CCAA. OEM valves preserve published system efficiency ratings, certifications, and safe combustion calibration. Generic valves may deviate in outlet pressure settings, risking incomplete combustion or nuisance lockouts.
• Install difficulty: 4/5 — Gas valve replacement is a licensed-technician repair. Shut off gas supply and 24V control power before beginning. Tools required: pipe wrench, combustion analyzer, manometer (to verify outlet pressure post-install), leak-check solution. Always re-verify gas pressure and leak-test all fittings after installation. Local codes may require a licensed gas technician.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty on parts. Ships same business day from our warehouse. Free shipping included.
