CAUSES:
•
The Low Gas Pressure Switch is detecting gas
pressure below the value required for proper
operation.
CHECK/ REPAIR:
•
Check Low Gas Pressure Switch wiring and connectors. Connectors must be clean and tight.
•
Determine proper minimum pressure from rating plate.
•
Use manometer or gauge to check gas pressure during all stages of operation with all other
appliances firing.
•
If pressure falls below rating plate requirement, supply pipe may be too small for application or supply
regulator may be operating improperly. See Gas Pressure section below.
