▶ Record lowest operating gas pressure reading in table 33.
Gas pressures lower than 3.5" W.C. for Natural Gas or 8" W.C. for LPG
will result in insufficient degree rise to the hot water being used, reduced
hot water volume, possible error code faults and must be corrected. See
Gas Connections, chapter 4.9, page 27.
P1 fan speed:
Factory default: NG: 54, LP: 46
Lowering P1 fan speed reduces the maximum BTU input.
As a temporary measure if the gas pressure in P1 is below specification,
lower P1 fan speed incrementally until minimum inlet gas pressure
reaches specified range (table 32). After upgrading gas line, reset
appliance to P1 factory default setting (NG: 54, LP: 46) or setting from
Section 4.3.8.
