ADJUSTING OR CHECKING FURNACE INPUT
The maximum gas supply pressure to the furnace should be
10.5" w.c. for natural gas and 13.0" w.c. for L.P. The minimum
gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment to the fur-
nace should be 5" w.c. for natural gas and 11.0" w.c. for L.P.
A calibrated manometer is required for accurate gas pressure
readings.
The manifold pressure should be set at 3.5" w.c. for natural gas
and 10.0" w.c. for L.P. Only small variations in the gas flow should
be made by means of the pressure regulator adjustment. In no
case should the final manifold pressure vary more than plus or
minus 0.3" w.c. from the above- specified pressures. To adjust
the pressure regulator, remove the regulator cap and turn the ad-
justment screw clockwise to increase pressure or counterclock-
wise to decrease pressure. Then replace the regulator cap
securely. Any necessary major changes in the gas flow rate
should be made by changing the size of the burner orifices.
To change orifice spuds, shut off the manual gas valve and re-
move the gas manifold. On LP gas furnaces, the LP gas supply
pressure must be set between 11" and 13" w.c. by means of the
tank or branch supply regulators. The furnace manifold pressure
should be set at 10" w.c. at the gas control valve. For elevations
up to 2,000 feet, rating plate input ratings apply. For high altitudes
(elevations over 2,000 ft.), see conversion kit index for derating
and orifice spud sizes.
Checking furnace input is important to prevent over firing beyond
its design-rated input. NEVER SET INPUT ABOVE THAT
SHOWN ON THE RATING PLATE. Use the following table or for-
mula to determine input rate. Start the furnace and measure the
time required to burn one cubic foot of gas. Prior to checking the
furnace input, make certain that all other gas appliances are shut
off, with the exception of pilot burners. Time the meter with only
the furnace in operation. See Table 11.
