When checking piping connections for gas leaks, use
preferred means. Kitchen detergents can cause harmful
corrosion on various metals used in gas piping. Use of a
specialty Gas Leak Detector is strongly recommended.
Do not use matches, candles, flame or any other
source of ignition to check for gas leaks.
Testing Gas Supply Pressure
An inlet post located on the gas valve provides access to
the supply pressure. See Figure 47. Back out the 3/32 hex
screw one turn, connect a piece of 5/16 tubing and connect
to a manometer to measure supply pressure. See Table 15
for supply line pressure.
Check Manifold Pressure
NOTE: Pressure test adapter kit (10L34) is available to
facilitate manifold pressure measurement.
A manifold pressure post located on the gas valve provides
access to the manifold pressure. See Figure 47. Back
out the 3/32 hex screw one turn, connect a piece of 5/16
tubing and connect to a manometer to measure manifold
pressure.
To correctly measure manifold pressure, the differential
pressure between the positive gas manifold and the
negative burner box must be considered.
IMPORTANT
For safety, shut unit off and remove manometer as soon
as an accurate reading has been obtained. Take care to
replace pressure tap plug.
The gas valve is factory set and should not require
adjustment. All gas valves are factory regulated.
1.
Connect the test gauge positive side "+" to manifold
pressure tap on gas valve as noted above.
2.
Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and connect
to test gauge negative "-".
3.
Ignite unit on low fire and let run for 5 minutes to allow
for steady state conditions.
4.
After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in
Table 15.
5.
Repeat on high fire and compare to value given in
Table 15. If necessary, make adjustments. Figure 47
shows location of high fire and low fire adjustment
screws.
31-5000726 Rev. 0
6.
Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained.
7.
Start unit and perform leak check. Seal leaks if found.
Proper Gas Flow (Approximate)
Furnace should operate at least 5 minutes before checking
gas flow. Determine time in seconds for two revolutions of
gas through the meter. (Two revolutions assures a more
accurate time.) Divide by two and compare to time in Table
13. If manifold pressure matches Table 15 and rate is
incorrect, check gas orifices for proper size and restriction.
NOTE: To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.
