NOTE:
When unit is initially started, steps 1 through
11 may need to be repeated to purge air from gas line.
12.
If the appliance will not operate, follow the instructions
“Turning Off Gas to Unit” and call your service
technician or gas supplier.
Turning Off Gas to Unit
1.
Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
2.
Turn off all electrical power to the unit if service is to
be performed.
3.
Remove the upper access panel.
4.
Move gas valve switch to OFF position. Do not force.
5.
Replace the upper access panel.
Safety or Emergency Shutdown
Disconnect main power to unit. Close manual and main
gas valves.
Extended Period Shutdown
Turn off thermostat or set to “UNOCCUPIED” mode.
Close all gas valves (both internal and external to unit) to
guarantee no gas leaks into combustion chamber. Turn
off power to unit. All access panels and covers must be in
place and secured.
Heating System Service Checks
C.S.A. Certification
All units are C.S.A. design certified without modifications.
Refer to the A95UH1E / 95G1UHE Operation and
Installation Instruction.
Gas Piping
Gas supply piping should not allow more than 0.5” W.C.
drop in pressure between gas meter and unit. Supply gas
pipe must not be smaller than unit gas connection.
Compounds used on gas piping threaded joints should be
resistant to action of liquefied petroleum gases.
Testing Gas Piping
If a flexible gas connector is required or allowed by
the authority that has jurisdiction, black iron pipe shall
be installed at the gas valve and extend outside the
furnace cabinet.
CAUTION
In case emergency shutdown is required, turn off the
main shut-off valve and disconnect the main power to
unit. These controls should be properly labeled by the
installer.
IMPORTANT
Do not over torque (800 in-lbs) or under torque (350
in-lbs) when attaching the gas piping to the gas valve.
WARNING
When pressure testing gas lines, the gas valve must be
disconnected and isolated. Gas valves can be damaged if
subjected to more than 0.5psig (14” W.C.). See Figure 17.
If the pressure is equal to or less than 0.5psig (14”W.C.),
close the manual shut-off valve before pressure testing to
isolate furnace from gas supply.
