Rheem-Ruud SP12766 Vacuum Switch Overview
The Rheem-Ruud SP12766 is an OEM replacement vacuum switch designed for use in Rheem and Ruud heating and HVAC systems. Vacuum switches play a critical role in furnace safety and operation — they verify that the draft inducer motor is generating the proper negative pressure before allowing the ignition sequence to proceed. If adequate vacuum is not established, the switch prevents the system from firing, protecting against unsafe combustion conditions.
