**Supply pressure should be checked with furnace and all other gas appliances running
FIRING RATE:
(CLOCKED METER FOR NAT. GAS – assure only furnace is running)
Firing rate = heat content (btu/cu. ft.) X size of the dial (cu. ft/rev) X # of rev. per 60 sec (rev/sec) X 3600 (sec/hr)
Example- (1050 btu/cu. ft.) X (0.5 cu. ft./rev.) X (2 revs./60sec) X (3600 sec/hr)= 63,000 btu/hr
OR use the “Gas Rate” chart in the startup and adjustment section of the installation manual
HIGH HEAT_________________ btu/hr
LOW HEAT
______________________________
btu/hr
LEAVING AIR TEMPERATURE __________(F) high _________ (F) low
RETURN AIR TEMPERATURE __________(F) high _________ (F) low
TEMPERATURE RISE __________(F) high _________ (F) low
Temperature rise is equal to the supply air temp minus the return air temp @ steady state operation.
The supply temperature should be measured away from the line of sight of the Heat Exchanger
