Rheem furnace error code 68 fix?

Hi, From what I'm seeing this means that there is a bad part within your furnace and it needs to be replaced. It might be the thermostat. You might need to reach out to a local HVAC company to diagnose the issue in person. Thank you.

I WAS TOLD THAT MY WATER HEATER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE OF WE ARE 7000FT IN ELEVATION AND APPARENTLY HEATER WAS SET TO SEA LEVEL.

Question moved from Kitchen Ranges. You need a High Altitude Conversion Kit from the maker. Then you need a gas registered technician to fit them and adjust. Standard altitude is up to 2,000 feet above sea level, https://www.google.com/search?q=gas+water+heater+setting+for+altitude+above+sea+level ..

the gas valve can be replaced, but you will have to pay for installation. this is not a DIY. You can throw money and parts at it. Personally I've replaced my water heater at the first sign of problems. Are they inexpensive no If you furnish model number I can look further.

I have a paloma PTG 74PVP-2, error codes C2 14 flashing?

Before calling service technician, or Rheem, copy following link for troubleshoot resources:http://waterheatertimer.org/Troubleshoot-Rheem-Tankless-water-heater.htmlError 14 is low manifold pressure, cracked heat exchanger, restricted air flow.C2 can be dirty combustion parts, bad gas solenoid valve, bad circuit board.Combination of these two error codes implies possible PC board failure, which is similar to failed motherboard on computer.Suggest that service technician perform the required yearly maintenance to see it that fixes error code.http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Rheem-CondensingTankless-maintenance-2012.pdf If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gene_9f0ef4df2f9897e7
