Empire Comfort Systems R3239 Vent Safety Switch

Product Description

The EMPIRE COMFORT SYSTEMS R3239 is a vent safety switch designed to monitor flue gas exhaust and shut down the heating appliance if a blocked or restricted vent condition is detected. This type of switch is a critical safety component in vented gas heating systems, protecting against the spillage of combustion products into the living space. It is typically installed by licensed HVAC technicians or gas appliance service professionals as part of routine maintenance or safety-system repair on Empire-brand vented heaters.

The R3239 vent safety switch is intended for use in residential and light-commercial vented gas heating applications. It mounts within the vent or draft diverter path and responds to abnormal temperature or pressure conditions that indicate a vent blockage or downdraft situation. This component is suited for service work on Empire Comfort Systems heating units where the original vent safety switch has failed or requires replacement.
