7.5 Adjusting CO2
The CO2 can only be adjusted by a certified gas technician
with a calibrated CO2 analyzer.
CO
2
adjustment is required in Natural Gas installations where
energy content is less than 900 BTU/cuft, and in installations
with repeated unresolved EA and EC errors (ref. to page 66
“Problem solving”).
CAUTION:
▶ One factor that may affect CO
2
levels is improper gas
pressure. Please see chapter 4.14 for the procedure to
measure gas pressure and record your findings below:
Static Gas Pressure: “ WC
P1 Operating Pressure: “ WC
The P1 minimum operating gas pressure is 3.5" WC for Natural
Gas and 8" WC for Propane. Do not proceed in adjusting CO
2
until pressure is at or above these levels, but not to exceed
10.5" WC for Natural Gas and 13" WC for Propane.
A. Once Gas Pressure is adequate
▶ Press ON/OFF button to turn OFF the heater.
▶ Remove brass flat head screw on the exhaust collar as seen
in fig. 72.
▶Insert CO
2
analyzer probe into the measuring port. The tip
of the probe should be in the center of the flue pipe (approx
1.5" inserted). Avoid air gaps between probe and
measuring port as they can alter readings.
Fig. 72 Measuring port
▶ Press the ON/OFF button to turn ON the heater.
▶ Press and hold simultaneously buttons , and
for 3 seconds, until display reads P2.
Fig. 73
▶ Press button until “P1” appears on display.
B. Measuring CO
2
(Combustion cover Installed):
▶ Open all hot water taps to achieve a flow rate of at least 6
gallons per minute. (1 tub and 2 sinks should be sufficient).
If heater display reverts back to P2, open more hot water
fixtures to allow sufficient flow. Press + until P1 reappears
on the display.
▶Record the CO
2
reading in P1 below. (Analyzer reading may
take several minutes to stabilize).
▶ Press the ‘+’ button until P2 appears. Unit will ramp down to
low fire and the water flow should decrease.
▶Record the CO
2
reading in P2 below.

* Values above are for climate controlled conditions. Inputs
such as gas pressure, heating value of the gas, humidity
and temperature of combustion air all impact CO and CO
2
values. Changes in these inputs can result in different CO
and CO

values on the same appliance.
