3.4 FUEL CONVERSION
The SFT series modulating water heater is factory fi re-tested to operate with
natural gas. The rating plate is marked to indicate which fuel the particular unit
has been set up with. Firing a unit with a fuel other than what is listed on the
rating plate is prohibited unless the following conversion procedure is completed
by a qualifi ed technician.
Refer to the preceding section 3.3 - COMMISSIONING. The low fi re (zero-offset)
valve adjustment cap on the gas valve has been factory set.
Fuel conversion requires hardware adjustments (orifi ce replacement) as well as
measurement and possible tuning of the low fi re mixture. Detailed instructions
including parts and labeling are found in Fuel Conversion kits.
Refer to Table 11
