Williams P322042 Gas Valve

The Williams P322042 is a high-performance 24V LP gas valve designed for precise fuel regulation in Williams Comfort Products LP-fired systems. Engineered as a direct OEM equivalent to the Honeywell VR8200C2213, this redundant combination valve provides steady pressure control for Liquid Propane applications. With a 10.5" WC output setting and a standard 1/2" NPT inlet/outlet, it integrates seamlessly into Forsaire series furnaces, including high-capacity top vent and direct vent models like the 3508, 4007, 5008, 6007, and 6508 series.

For veteran technicians, the Williams P322042 offers a field-reliable solution for erratic burner cycles or failed pilot safety circuits. It features internal pilot gas filtration and a manual shut-off for streamlined maintenance. This valve ensures compatible heating system gas control by maintaining proper manifold pressure, which is critical for preventing soot buildup and ensuring efficient combustion in vented and unvented wall furnaces.

Key Benefits:

• Exact OEM Specifications: Matches Williams furnace replacement parts standards for immediate drop-in installation without manifold modifications.
• Broad Compatibility: Supports a wide range of Williams wall heaters, specifically the Forsaire and Forsaire Magnum product lines.
• Reliable Pilot Safety: Replaces P322042 gas valve units experiencing solenoid failure or thermocouple sensing issues.
• Durable Solenoid Design: Built to withstand the thousands of cycles required for residential and light commercial heat-call demands.
• Precise LP Regulation: Calibrated specifically for Liquid Propane at 10.5" WC to maximize burner efficiency.

Common Questions:

Can I use the P322042 in a Natural Gas system?
No, this valve is factory-regulated for Liquid Propane (LP) at 10.5" WC. For Natural Gas applications, you must use the manufacturer-specified NG valve to ensure correct manifold pressure and safe operation.

Is this a direct replacement for the Honeywell VR8200C2213?
Yes, the Williams P322042 is technically identical to the VR8200C2213, providing the same voltage rating, physical dimensions, and pressure regulation specs for HVAC replacement parts.

What are the symptoms of a failing gas valve in a Williams furnace?
Typical indicators include a pilot that lights but fails to engage the main burner, intermittent clicking without combustion, or the furnace shutting down prematurely due to inconsistent gas flow.
