7. Jumper the R to W thermostat connections at the furnace control
board.
8. When main burners ignite, confirm inlet gas pressure is Between
4.5 in. w.c. and 13.6 in. w.c.
9. Remove jumper across thermostat connections to terminate call for
heat. Wait until the blower off delay is completed.
10. Turn furnace gas valve electric switch to OFF position.
11. Turn gas supply manual shutoff valve to OFF position.
12. Turn off furnace power supply.
13. Remove manometer from the inlet pressure tap of the gas valve.
14. Tighten set screw on inlet pressure tap with 3/32-in. hex wrench, or
if 1/8-in. NPT plug was removed, apply pipe dope sparingly to end
of plug and re-install in the gas valve.
Adjust Manifold Pressure
1. Adjust manifold pressure to obtain proper gas input rate, see
.

Fig. 65 – Gas Valve with Tower Pressure Ports
a. Refer to the correct manifold pressure table for the appropriate
model.
b. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to OFF.
c. Loosen set screw on manifold tower pressure tap no more than
one full turn with a 3/32-in. hex wrench, or remove the 1/8 inch
NPT plug from the manifold pressure tap on the gas valve.
d. Connect a water column manometer or similar device to
manifold pressure tap.
e. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to ON.
f. Manually close blower door switch.
g. Jumper R and W thermostat connections on control to start
h. Remove regulator adjustment cap from gas valve pressure
regulator and turn adjusting screw (3/16 or smaller flat-tipped
screwdriver) counterclockwise (out) to decrease input rate or
clockwise (in) to increase input rate, see
i. When correct input is obtained, replace cap that conceals gas
valve regulator adjustment screws. Main burner flame should be
clear blue, almost transparent, see
j. Remove jumpers R to W.

Clocking the Meter
1. Verify natural gas input rate by clocking meter.
NOTE:
Contact your HVAC distributor or gas supplier for metric gas
meter tables, if required.
a. Turn off all other gas appliances and pilots served by the meter.
b. Jumper R to W.
c. Run furnace for 3 minutes.
d. Measure time (in sec) for gas meter to complete one revolution
and note reading. The 2 or 5 cubic feet dial provides a more
accurate measurement of gas flow.
e. Refer to
f. Multiply gas rate cu ft./hr by heating value (Btuh/cu ft.) to obtain
input rate.
g. If clocked rate does not match required input from Step 1,
increase manifold pressure to increase input or decrease manifold
pressure to decrease input. Repeat steps b through e of Step 1
until correct input is achieved. Re-install regulator seal cap on
gas valve.
2. Restore furnace to normal operating condition.
a. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to OFF.
b. Remove water column manometer or similar device from
manifold pressure tap.
c. Tighten set screw on manifold pressure tap with 3/32-in. hex
wrench, or if 1/8-in. NPT plug was removed, apply pipe dope
sparingly to end of plug and re-install in the gas valve.
d. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to ON.
e. Check for gas leaks and verify furnace operation.
Adjust Temperature Rise
NOTE:
Blower door must be installed when taking temperature rise
reading. Leaving blower door off will result in incorrect temperature
measurements, due to possible changes in duct static pressure and
airflow.
WARNING

FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death,
and/or property damage.
Inlet pressure tap set screw must be tightened and 1/8-in. NPT pipe
plug must be installed to prevent gas leaks.
