Ummm.... That last sentence was kind of garbled. Were you going through a tunnel?
The only reason I want to know the model number of your gas valve is curiosity. Assuming it is not a model number I have come accross, it adds to the list of valves that I can use. So don’t go to heroic efforts to find out, though a mirror would probably make it easier.
Be careful of what gas valve you choose. There are several other, less expensive, Robertshaw gas valves that look exactly like the 710-201, but lack the thermocouple gas shut off feature, or something else. I have looked for a less expensive alternative, but found none. Either way the plumbing is different and would require someone with tube bending experience. That might be the most expensive part.
Probably the least expensive alternative is to find another
furnace that uses the same valve. No guarantee that it works though. This is how I have an inventory of about 5 spare valves, one that is in pieces, and missing the large rubber diaphragm.
