G- Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct 
manifold pressure and gas ow rate before checking com-
bustion. See sections E- and F-. Take combustion sample 
beyond the ue outlet. Table 13 shows acceptable com-
bustion for ALL EL280UHE(X) models. The maximum car-
bon monoxide reading should not exceed 100 ppm.

H- High Altitude
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  14 
for  manifold  pressure  and  table  15  for  pressure  switch 
change and gas conversion kits.
