Combustion and Input Check
1.
Make sure all gas appliances are off except the furnace.
2.
Clock the gas meter with the furnace operating (determine the
dial rating of the meter) for one revolution.
3.
Match the "Sec" column in the gas flow table with the time
clocked.
4.
Read the "Flow" column opposite the number of seconds clocked.
5.
Use the following factors if necessary:
a.
For 1 Cu. Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH = Chart Flow Reading ÷ 2
b.
For 1/2 Cu Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH = Chart Flow Reading ÷ 4
c.
For 5 Cu. Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH = 10X Chart Flow Reading ÷ 4
6.
Multiply the final figure by the heating value of the gas obtained
from the utility company and compare to the nameplate rating.
This must not exceed the nameplate rating.
