My reason to play Rh7 was to prevent mate when black rook on h2 arrives in c2 after forcing my king to e1
It's not a game losing blunder but goes from an advantage to essentially even. Black also has no mate there after Rc2 because after Rh1+ 2. Kf2 R8h2+ 4. Ke1 Rc2 you just take the h1 rook. With your rook on c7, in that line, you're threatening the c7 pawn and advancing the a6 pawn

My question was why is it equal after rb7
While Rc7 is still winning

Also it's R1h2+ while the rook on h6 stays there
Chess.com's game review is running at a ridiculously low depth. Not reliable. Switch to the "Analysis" tab and give the engine time to calculate. Analysis is also a user-friendly thing where you can try any move as you want, while the game review interface is a nightmare.
As it turns out, Rb7 is better than Rc7. Pretty funny.
