GAS TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE 
 

CHECKING GAS PRESSURE WITH A MONOMETER

 

 

 

MAKE SURE BURNER IS OFF.  Remove lower centre grill to expose Robertshaw 

gas valve Locate allen bolt legend by “pressure tap and remove using 3/16” allen 

wrench.  Insert a monometer adaptor, hook up a 12” slack tube monometer.  Zero out 

scale so that water level is balanced at zero.  Monometer has a sliding scale.  Light 

burner – water column will lower on one side and raise on the other.  Natural gas 

reading should be +1.75” on one side of the zero and –1.75” on the other.  This will 

give you a 3.50” total change in water column.  Lp should be +5.5 on one side and –

5.5 on the other giving you an 11.00” total water column change.  These readings can 

only be obtained by having the adjustable control on high.  If theses readings cannot 

be reached you must check incoming pressure to the stove.  If incoming pressure is 

sufficient, the only way to correct it on an adjustable flame control valve 

(Robertshaw) is to replace the regulator on the control valve.
