Robertshaw 710-108 Gas Valve
The Robertshaw 710-108 Gas Valve is an industry-standard, low-profile solution engineered specifically for space-constrained heating applications, including recreational vehicles, wall furnaces, and compact space heaters. This 3/8-inch combo gas valve features a low-capacity design that provides high-precision control with a factory-set 3.5" WC pressure regulator. Designed for versatile field installation, the unit supports multi-positional mounting (excluding upside down) and utilizes a right-hand outlet configuration for streamlined manifold connection. The integrated automatic pilot safety valve, manual gas cock, and pilot adjustment key ensure comprehensive fuel management within a single, robust housing. Constructed to meet the rigorous demands of veteran contractors, this Robertshaw 710 Series model is optimized for natural gas systems but can be field-converted for LP applications with the appropriate regulator kit. Its compact low-profile gas heating valve footprint makes it the professional’s choice for drop-in replacements where larger 7000 series valves simply will not fit.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Compact Footprint: Designed for limited space, measuring approximately 3-13/16" H x 4-21/32" L, making it ideal for tight furnace cabinets.
- Installation Versatility: The 3-position outlet and multi-positional capability allow for flexible bypass and piping runs.
- Safety Integration: Features a high-reliability safety magnet and 1/4" pilot outlet for standard thermocouple or thermopile connections.
- Debris Protection: Includes an internal inlet filtered screen to prevent sediment from compromising the valve seat.
Can I use this valve for an LP gas conversion?
Yes. While factory-calibrated for 3.5" WC Natural Gas, the 710-108 can be converted to LP by installing the compatible 710 series replacement pressure regulator kit.
What is the maximum BTU rating for this control?
The valve is rated for a capacity of 70,000 BTU for natural gas and up to 112,000 BTU for LP gas applications.
Does the 710-108 require a specific mounting orientation?
It can be mounted in any orientation except upside down. For optimal performance, ensure all unused outlets are securely plugged with the provided socket plugs.
