3. The induced--draft motor will start.
4. On a call for heating, the main burner should light within 5
sec. of the sparker being energized. If the burners do not
light, there is a 22--sec. delay before another 5--sec. try. If
the burners still do not light, this sequence is repeated. If the
burners do not light within 15 minutes from the initial call
for heat, there is a lockout. To reset the control, break the
24--v power to W.
5. The evaporator fan will turn on 45 sec. after the flame has
been established. The evaporator fan will turn off 45 sec.
after the thermostat has been satisfied. Please note that the
integrated gas unit controller (IGC) has the capability to
automatically reduce the evaporator “ON” delay and in-
crease the evaporator “OFF” delay in the event of high duct
static and/or partially--clogged filter.
Check Gas Input
Check gas input and manifold pressure after unit start--up (See
Table 4). If adjustment is required proceed as follows:
S The rated gas inputs shown in Table 4 are for altitudes from sea
level to 2000 ft (610 m) above sea level. These inputs are based
on natural gas with a heating value of 1050 Btu/ft
3 at 0.65
specific gravity, or propane gas with a heating value of 2500
Btu/ft
3 at 1.5 specific gravity.
IN THE U.S.A.:
The input rating for altitudes above 2,000 ft (610 m) must be
reduced by 4% for each 1,000 ft (305 m) above see level.
For installations below 2,000 ft (610 m), refer to the unit rating
plate.
For installations above 2,000 ft (610 m). multiply the input by on
the rating plate by the derate multiplier in Table 3 for correct input
rate.

*Derate multiplier factors are based on midpoint altitude for altitude range.
IN CANADA:
The input rating for altitudes from 2,000 (610 m) to 4,500 ft (1372
m) above sea level must be derated 10% by an authorized Gas
Conversion Station or Dealer.

When the gas supply being used has a different heating value or
specific gravity, refer to national and local codes, or contact your
distributor to determine the required orifice size.
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced unit
and/or component life.
Do Not redrill an orifice. Improper drilling (burrs,
out--of--round holes, etc.) can cause excessive burner noise
and misdirection of burner flame. If orifice hole appears
damaged or it is suspected to have been redrilled, check
orifice hole with a numbered drill bit of correct size.
! CAUTION
Adjust Gas Input
The gas input to the unit is determined by measuring the gas flow
at the meter or by measuring the manifold pressure. Measuring the
gas flow at the meter is recommended for natural gas units. The
manifold pressure must be measured to determine the input of
propane gas units.
Measure Gas Flow (Natural Gas Units)
Minor adjustment to the gas flow can be made by changing the
manifold pressure. The manifold pressure must be maintained
between 3.2 and 3.8 in. wc.

If larger adjustments are required, change main burner orifices
following the recommendations of national and local codes.
NOTE:
All other appliances that use the same meter must be
turned off when gas flow is measured at the meter.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn off gas supply to unit.
2. Remove pipe plug on manifold (See Fig. 12) and connect
manometer. Turn on gas supply to unit.
3. Record number of seconds for gas meter test dial to make
one revolution.
4. Divide number of seconds in Step 3 into 3600 (number of
seconds in one hr).
5. Multiply result of Step 4 by the number of cubic feet (cu ft)
shown for one revolution of test dial to obtain cubic feet (cu
ft) of gas flow per hour.
6. Multiply result of Step 5 by Btu heating value of gas to
obtain total measured input in Btuh. Compare this value
with heating input shown in Table 4 (Consult the local gas
supplier if the heating value of gas is not known).
EXAMPLE: Assume that the size of test dial is 1 cu ft, one
revolution takes 32 sec, and the heating value of the gas is 1050
Btu/ft 3 . Proceed as follows:
1. 32 sec. to complete one revolution.
2. 3600 ÷ 32 = 112.5.
3. 112.5 x 1 =112.5 ft
3 of gas flow/hr.
