The efficiency rating of this appliance is a product thermal efficiency rating determined under continuous operating
conditions and was determined independently of any installed system.
The appliance and its shutoff valves must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing
where the pressure exceeds 1/2 PSIG (3.45 kpa) or damage will occur to the valve.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution after completing the required pressure test.
TO TEST VALVE PRESSURES
The pressure taps are located on the left side of the valve
•
Turn set screw 1 turn counter clockwise to loosen,.
•
Place 5/16" (8 mm) I.D. hose over pressure tap system.
