Gas Pressure Adjustment
Gas Line Pressure
Check gas line pressure with unit firing at maximum rate. A
minimum of 4.5 inches w.c. (1.12kPa) for natural gas or 8.5
inches w.c. (2.11kPa) for LP/propane gas should be mainĆ
tained.
Gas Manifold Pressure
After line pressure has been checked and adjusted, check
regulator pressure. See table 6 for correct manifold presĆ
sures for LP/propane and natural gas at altitudes in a range
of 0 to 7500 feet (0 to 2248m).
TABLE 6
Unit (Fuel)
Manifold Pressure (outlet)
from 0 to 7500 ft. (0 to 2248m) above sea level
Natural 3.5" w.c. (.87 kPa)
L.P./Propane 7.5" w.c. (1.86 kPa)
WARNING
Do not set manifold pressure for LP/propane higher
than 7.5 inches w.c. (1.8kPa).
