Have a Rheem furnace,model RPGH-10EAMER, that has a bad pressure switch.  I've been trying to look for one on the net and have come up with thishttp://www.northamericahvac.com/servlet/the-2945/Rheem-RUUD-Furnace-Air/Detail to replace this. will it work??

If it will mount in their it will Just make sure that your draft motor is working.


You should be able to get one local and alot cheaper than 50 bucks

johnstone will have one that will work it will not be an OEM unless they carry rheem/rudd but it is just an open and close switch.

Actually I would say that the $54 price is about 'average'.  Different furnaces have different switches; some cost more, others less.  For example I can find some Lennox OEM switches online right now for less than $54.

My point here is that if you purchase a switch, make sure it matches your specific furnace and is not a universal model.  That price isn't too steep in my opinion.
