Furnace gas burner control
QUESTION:I have a Williams Forsaire natural gas wall furnace which is about
30 years old. Can the burner control unit be rebuilt or cleaned out or is
there a unit with which I can replace this one with? I called Williams
and they just chuckled that I thought they might have any information on a
unit that old. The burner control is a 24 volt Unitrol brand.
ANSWER: here are several compact gas valves made that may work for your unit. You
need to know the Btu input, pipe size in and out, is it straight through or
side outlet for the manifold. With this information or the valve in hand
someone like WW Grainger should be able to help you out. If you call someone
to replace the valve you may save time (money) if you can give them this
information. Little chance that cleaning and less rebuilding is a option.
