White Rodgers 36H64-463 3/4 36H Two-Stage Gas Valve, Reducer Bushings (Two 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch), 24V, Natural Gas (Include, replacement for 36C76-484

I had a bad valve of White Rodgers #36E54-201. I googled and found this one might be a fit for replacement. I ordered it and it was very quick in shipping. I got it just in time of a cold front coming our way. I replaced the valve with the new one. It worked all fine without any issue so far. It has been about 3 weeks now. Our furnace worked again to keep us warm in the cold days. Only one problem was that my old one had 1/2" inlet and outlet and the new one has 3/4". There were bushing in the box to reduce it. But I learned on the Internet that it may not be accepted by the city code. So, I had to go and look for 3/4" to 1/2" reducers. It was my first gas pipe work and took me some time to research and get the correct ones. Afterwards, I did feel it was better to use the reducer rather than the bushing in the box since they looked thin and not so solid. I also wondered if I had used it whether I could take easily take it apart in case I could not do it well in one shot. I could have damaged it or the outlet of the valve if I had to take them apart. Anyway, it worked out all fine for me now. I pretty much replaced all the pipes leading to the valve. What I want to say here is that it was a good fit. I was nervous when I ordered it since I was not so sure whether it would fit even those the docs and Internet articles said "yes". So, if yours is the same as my old one, it works.
