4.2.3 PREPARING THE FLUE VENT
PROBE HOLE

1. If the unit has been installed using the

recommended AL29-4C vent, there will be a
3/8” hole, 18” to 24” above the exhaust
manifold. The outer vent section, that covers
vent section connections must be loosened
and moved to uncover the hole (see
Fig. 4.2).

2. If equipped with one, adjust the stop on the

combustion analyzer probe so that it extends
into the flue gas flow without hitting the
opposite wall of the flue. Do not insert the
probe at this time.

IMPORTANT

The unit is shipped from the factory set up for
either natural gas or propane, as specified by the
Style No. on the Sales Order.

For propane units, refer to paragraph 4.4.

4.3 NATURAL GAS COMBUSTION
CALIBRATION

The KC-1000 is shipped combustion calibrated
from the factory. Recalibration as part of a start-
up is necessary due to altitude, gas BTU
content, gas supply piping and supply regulators.
Factory test data sheets are shipped with each
unit as a reference.

The following combustion calibration procedure
closely follows the factory procedure. By
following this procedure, readjustment of the
combustion settings will be kept to a minimum.

1. Open the water supply and return valves to

the unit and ensure that the system pumps
are running.

2. Open the gas supply valve(s) to the unit.

3. If a lockup style regulator is installed as a

gas supply regulator, adjust the gas supply
until a reading of 12” W.C. static pressure is
obtained.

4. Set the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

Turn on AC power to the unit. The display
will show LOSS OF POWER and the time
and date.

5. Set the unit to the Manual Mode by pressing

the AUTO/MAN switch. A flashing Manual
Fire Rate
message will be displayed with the
present rate in %. Also, the MANUAL LED
will light.

NOTE:

For a review of control panel operating
procedures

, refer to Section 3.

6. Adjust the rate to 0% by pressing the

arrow key.

7. Set the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.

8. Change the firing rate to 25% using the

arrow key. This will put the unit into the
starting sequence.
