d. Refer to Table 9 for cu ft of gas per hr.
e. Multiply gas rate (cu ft/hr) X heating value (Btu/cu ft)

using natural gas heating value from local gas
utility/supplier.

EXAMPLE: (0—2000 ft altitude)
Btu heating input = Btu/cu ft X cu ft/hr
Heating value of gas = 1050 Btu/cu ft
Time for 1 revolution of 2-cu ft dial = 82 sec
Gas rate = 88 cu ft/hr (from Table 9)
Btu heating input = 88 X 1050 = 92,400 Btuh
In this example, the orifice size and manifold pressure
adjustment is within

±2 percent of the furnace input rate.

2. Set temperature rise.

Furnace must operate within range of temperature rise speci-
fied on the unit rating plate. Determine the air temperature rise
as follows.
a. Place duct thermometers in return and supply ducts as near

furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not "see" heat
exchangers so that radiant heat does not affect thermometer
readings. This is particularly important with straight-run
ducts.

b. When thermometer readings stabilize, subtract return-air

temperature from supply-air temperature to determine tem-
perature rise.

c. Adjust air temperature rise by adjusting blower speed.

Increase blower speed to reduce temperature rise. Decrease
blower speed to increase temperature rise.

Disconnect the electrical power before changing the speed
tap. Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury.

d. To change blower motor speed selections for heating mode

remove blower motor lead from control board HEAT
