Furnace should operate at least 5 minutes before check-
ing gas ow. Determine time in seconds for two revolu-
tions of gas through the meter. (Two revolutions assures a
more accurate time.) Divide by two and compare to time
in table 13 below. If manifold pressure matches table 14
and rate is incorrect, check gas orices for proper size and
restriction. Remove temporary gas meter if installed.
NOTE - To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.
Supply Pressure Measurement
When testing supply gas pressure, use the 1/8” N.P.T.
plugged tap or pressure post located on the gas valve
to facilitate test gauge connection. See gure 60. Check
gas line pressure with unit ring at maximum rate. Low
pressure may result in erratic operation or underre. High
pressure can result in permanent damage to gas valve or
overre.
On multiple unit installations, each unit should be checked
separately, with and without units operating. Supply pres-
sure must fall within range listed in table 14.
Check Manifold Pressure
After supply pressure has been checked and adjusted,
check manifold pressure. Move pressure gauge to outlet
pressure tap located on unit gas valve (GV1). Checks of
manifold pressure are made as verication of proper reg-
ulator adjustment.
IMPORTANT
For safety, connect a shut-off valve between the
manometer and the gas tap to permit shut off of gas
pressure to the manometer.
1 - Connect the test gauge positive side “+“ to manifold
pressure tap on gas valve.
2 - Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and
connect to test gauge negative “-”.
3 - Start unit and let run for 5 minutes to allow for steady
state conditions.
4 - After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in
table 14.
5 - Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained. Take care to
replace pressure tap plug.
6 - Start unit and perform leak check. Seal leaks if found.

Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct
manifold pressure and gas ow rate before checking com-
bustion. Take combustion sample beyond the ue outlet
and compare to the tables below. The maximum carbon
monoxide reading should not exceed 100 ppm.

High Altitude Information
NOTE - In Canada, certication for installations at eleva-
tions over 4500 feet (1372 m) is the jurisdiction of local
authorities.
Units may be installed at altitudes up to 10,000 ft. above
sea level. See table 17 for de-rate manifold values. Units
installed at altitude of 7501 - 10,000 feet require an orice
change. Units installed at altitude of 4501 - 10,000 feet
require a pressure switch change which can be ordered
separately. Table 17 lists conversion kit and pressure
switch requirements at varying altitudes.
The combustion air pressure switch is factory-set and re-
quires no adjustment.
