Burner Control Turndown

Burner turndown ratio is used in many places and must 
be calculated. On the data label, locate the INPUT 
BTU/HR (the largest number on the label) and also 
the MINIMUM INPUT BTU/HR. Calculate the burner 
turndown ratio and record it.

Burner Turndown:

    _______________

NOTE

This unit is an indirect gas-fired heat module that will 
be referred to in this manual as a furnace.

Receiving

Since this furnace is already installed in a ventilation 
unit, follow the Receiving Instructions for the unit which 
are provided in the unit-specific Installation, Operating 
and Maintenance manual (IOM).

Unpacking

If unit is to be installed, tested and operated right 
away, locate and remove all packing materials from the 
furnace, including any protective coverings that may 
be on the combustion air intake and on the furnace 
exhaust. Follow 

Unpacking Instructions

 as found in the 

unit-specific IOM.

Storage

If unit must be stored after it is received, follow the unit-
specific storage instructions found in the unit IOM. Also 
plug all piping.

Unit Identification

It is necessary to know the unit model number, the 
burner control turndown and the serial number. This 
information is needed when ordering replacement parts 
and is available on labels located on the unit.

Furnace Model Number

On the furnace access door or immediately next to the 
door is a Mylar data label. See image below. Locate the 
furnace model number at the top of the label and record 
it here:

Furnace Model Number:

Typical Unit ID Plate

Furnace Serial Number

The furnaces are assigned the same serial number 
as the main ventilating unit. On the main unit control 
access door is a stamped metal plate identifying the 
unit serial number. Record that information here.

ETL Listing

Model PVF and PVG furnaces have been ETL tested 
as gas-fired heat modules intended for installation as a 
component within heating equipment in duct or cabinet 
mounted applications. 

They are ETL Recognized
