IMPORTANT
For safety, shut unit off and remove manometer as
soon as an accurate reading has been obtained.
Take care to replace pressure tap plug.
G− Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct
manifold pressure and gas flow rate before checking com-
bustion. See sections E− and F−. Take combustion sample
beyond the flue outlet. Table 9 shows acceptable combus-
tion for ALL EL280UH models. The maximum carbon
monoxide reading should not exceed 50 ppm.

The manifold pressure may require adjustment and com-
bustion air pressure switch may need replacing to ensure
proper combustion at higher altitudes. Refer to table 10 for
manifold pressure and table 11 for pressure switch change
and gas conversion kits.
