F- Proper Gas Flow (Approximate)
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 18 below. If manifold pressure matches TABLE
20 and rate is incorrect, check gas orices for proper size
and restriction.
NOTE- To obtain accurate reading, shut o all other gas
appliances connected to meter.

IMPORTANT
.For safety, shut unit o 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 ow rate before checking com-
bustion.
See sections E- and F-. Take combustion sample beyond
the ue outlet and compare to the table below. The max-
imum carbon monoxide reading should not exceed 100
ppm.
TABLE 19
Firing Rate CO2% For Nat CO2% For L.P.
High Fire 6.0 - 7.4 6.9 - 8.4
Low Fire 4.8 - 6.0 5.7 - 7.0
The carbon monoxide reading should not exceed 100 ppm.
H-High Altitude
The manifold pressure, gas orice and pressure switch
may require adjustment or replacement to ensure proper
operation at higher altitudes. See TABLE 20 for manifold
pressures, TABLE 21 for pressure switch kits and TABLE
22 or TABLE 23 for gas conversion kits.
