CHECK/ REPAIR:
• Check Low Gas Pressure Switch wiring and connectors. Connectors must be clean and tight.
• Determine proper minimum pressure from rating plate.
• Use manometer or gauge to check gas pressure during all stages of operation with all other
appliances firing.
• If pressure falls below rating plate requirement, supply pipe may be too small for application or supply
regulator may be operating improperly. See Gas Pressure section below.

HIGH ALTITUDE

The water heaters covered in this Service Handbook are certified for elevations up to 10,100 feet (3,078
meters). For higher elevations call the toll free support phone number shown on the back cover of this
Service Handbook for technical assistance.

*Manifold Pressure
*The Manifold Pressure is the factory setting and is not adjustable. A negative pressure will be seen with just the blower running without
the Gas Control Valve open.
**For SUF 119300-119500 natural gas models a low gas pressure kit is available for gas pressure down to 3.5" W.C.. Contact your local
distributor or call the parts department phone listed on the back cover of this manual for more information.
