    5.17 Venting of the Furnace The AVG wall mounted air conditioner with gas heat furnace is a Category I furnace, i.e., a central furnace which operates with a non-positive vent static pressure and with a flue loss not less than 17%. The furnace is fan assisted, i.e., an appliance equipped with an integral means to either draw or force products of combustion through the combustion changer and/or the heat exchanger.

    3. The intake of the combustion air is thru louvers located on the side of the AVG wall mounted air conditioner with gas heat furnace. Maintain 19" clearance between the louvers and anything that would restrict or impede air flow into the louvers. Chapter 6 Checks and Adjustments The unit must be operating in the heating mode while doing the following check and adjustments.

    6.5 LP Gas Conversion The following instructions are for the field conversion of a Marvair AVG gas heat with air conditioning from using Natural Gas to LP (propane) gas. This kit includes parts required to convert a burner assembly beginning with model number HMG075-125 only.
  • Page 28 Failure to properly install the LP gas conversion kit could result in death, serious injury or property damage. The Marvair AVG unit is shipped from the factory for operation on natural gas. When used on LP gas, the gas orifice spud and the gas valve spring must be replaced and the gas valve regulator must be adjusted.
  • Page 29 11. Reconnect the gas supply pipe, using pipe joint compound resistant to LP gas on the pipe threads, to the gas valve. Tighten the union fitting. 12. Reconnect wires to the gas valve following the wiring diagram provided on the AVG unit. 13.
  • Page 30: High Altitude Installation

    The Marvair AVG unit is shipped from the factory for operation at sea level up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For installations from 2,000 (610 m) to 7,000 feet (2,134 m), see the following chart for proper sizing of the orifice.

Models AVG42, 48 & 60 are factory set up for natural gas with nominal heating capacities are 75,000 BTUH, 100,000 BTUH and 125,000 BTUH.
  • Page 33: Cooling Mode

    All GPac air conditioners with gas heat furnaces are tested in accordance with UL standard 1995 and listed by ETL. Performance and Efficiency Ratings are in accordance with the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) standard 390. 7.1 Cooling Mode The GPac air conditioners with gas heat use R-22 refrigerant in a conventional vapor-compression refrigeration cycle to transfer heat from air in an enclosed space to the outside.
  • Page 34 Low Pressure By-Pass Time When starting, the low pressure switch (LPS) fault condition will be by-passed for 3 minutes before the contactor is de-energized. Post Purge Upon a call for indoor airflow “G” the blower will energize immediately. When in the cooling mode, the blower will remain energized for 10 to 90 seconds (adjustable) after the compressor has been de-energized.
  • Page 35: Heating Mode

    Low Pressure Switch The low pressure switch is mounted on the compressor suction line. It is designed to open if the refrigerant pressure drops to 35 PSIG; it resets when the pressure rises to 60 PSIG. The switch protects the unit if airflow through the indoor blower is impeded, if the blower motor fails, or if there is a loss of refrigerant.
  • Page 36: Ventilation Options

    GreenWheel ERV reduces the energy load of the outside air. Exhausting stale, inside air keeps indoor pollutants and harmful gases to a minimum. The Marvair GreenWheel ERV has been tested and certified according to ARI Standard 1060.
  • Page 37: Economizer Operation

    7.4 Economizer Operation - Cooling Cycle (GPac unit with Economizer only) The economizer is a regulated damper system with controls. The damper regulates the circulation of outside air into the enclosure (when the outdoor air conditions are suitable) to reduce the need for mechanical cooling, save energy, and extend compressor life.
