INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRESSURE TEST GAUGE CONNECTION



Supply Pressure

1. The installer will provide a 1/8” N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection immediately

upstream of the gas supply connection to the heater.



Manifold Pressure:

1 Turn the gas valve to the “OFF” position. Remove the 1/8” plug from the combination gas valve at the outlet

pressure tap and connect the 1/8” nipple to the tapped hole. Connect gauge to nipple. Turn on the gas
supply.

2. With the main burner operating, check the burner manifold pressure using a water manometer. The

combination gas valve is factory set and should not be adjusted. If adjustment is required, remove the cover
screw. Using a small screwdriver, turn the adjustment screw clockwise

to increase, or counter-clockwise

to decrease the gas pressure to burner. Replace the cover screw.

3. Gauges that measure in pounds per square inch are not accurate enough to measure or set the manifold

pressure. Use a water manometer or a gauge calibrated in inches of water column. All measurements MUST
BE made when this heater and all other gas burning equipment that is connected to the gas supply system are
operating at maximum capacity.
