The Resideo VR8204A2266/B Gas Valve is a 24V standing pilot gas control engineered for high-efficiency natural gas furnaces and boilers. This standard-opening gas valve features a 1/2" NPT inlet and outlet, facilitating straightforward integration into existing manifolds. With a factory-set 3.5" WC manifold pressure, it ensures consistent fuel delivery and optimal combustion for residential and light commercial heating equipment. Built for reliability in demanding environments, the VR8204A2266/B utilizes a compact footprint to handle tight clearances while maintaining precise regulation of gas flow. As a direct Honeywell Home replacement valve, it is the standard choice for contractors looking to restore system integrity without unnecessary modifications to the pilot or thermopile circuitry.

Key Benefits for Technicians:

• System Compatibility: Designed specifically for 24 Vac, 60 Hz applications with standing pilot ignition systems.
• Precise Pressure Regulation: Features a built-in pressure regulator set for 3.5 inches water column to ensure stable flame characteristics.
• Flexible Installation: The 1/2 in. x 1/2 in. gas connection size and straight-through body design simplify piping in compact furnace cabinets.
• Standard Capacity: Rated for up to 150,000 BTU/hr, providing sufficient flow for a wide range of natural gas appliances.

Common Questions:

Can this valve be converted for Liquid Propane (LP) use?

Yes, while factory-configured for natural gas, the VR8204A2266/B can be converted using a 393691 LP Conversion Kit. Always verify manifold pressure with a manometer after any conversion.

What is the ambient temperature rating for this control?

This valve is rated for operation in ambient temperatures ranging from 0°F to 175°F (-18°C to 79°C), making it suitable for unconditioned mechanical rooms and attic installations.

Does this model include a pilot gas filter?

Yes, the internal design includes a pilot gas filter to prevent orifice clogging and ensure reliable pilot ignition over the life of the control.
