Can the Rheem 60-42570-82 be used with LP?
Yes, this valve is compatible with liquid propane, but it must be configured with the correct NG to LP conversion kit (e.g., Honeywell 396021) to ensure the regulator provides the proper 8" to 11" w.c. pressure.
Is this a direct replacement for 60-42570-01?
Yes, the 60-42570-82 is the current factory-authorized replacement for original part numbers 60-42570-01 and 60-42570-81 in 2-stage HVAC systems.
How do I troubleshoot a 2-stage gas valve that won't open?
Verify the 24VAC call for heat on both stage terminals. Ensure the pressure switch is closing and the integrated furnace control is sending voltage to the valve solenoid after the ignition trial.
