Types of Control Boards for HVAC Systems

Control boards vary by what they manage and where they're installed. Match the board type to the equipment before ordering a replacement.

Choosing the Right Replacement Control Board

Match a replacement board by the model or part number printed on the original, not just the board type, since the same furnace model can use different board revisions over time. Confirm the voltage and terminal layout match, and check whether the board is an OEM part or a universal board that needs field configuration.

OEM vs. Aftermarket Control Boards

OEM control boards are made by the equipment manufacturer and plug in without extra setup. Universal aftermarket boards work across multiple brands and typically cost less, but need dip switches or jumpers configured to match the original board's settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Control circuit boards are the brains of HVAC systems, controlling operations like temperature regulation, airflow, and system diagnostics. They coordinate signals to various components to ensure the system runs smoothly.

See the table above for what each board type controls. We also stock boards for furnaces, air handlers, and heat pumps, along with other HVAC systems.

Symptoms of a faulty control circuit board can include the HVAC system not turning on, erratic behavior, or error codes displayed on the system. If you notice these issues, the control board may need to be inspected or replaced.

Yes, our circuit boards are compatible with a wide range of HVAC systems. Please check product specifications or consult our team.

Installation should be done carefully to avoid electrical hazards. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions, or consider hiring a licensed technician to ensure the circuit board is properly installed.
