CAUTION
!
Use a backup wrench on the gas valve when installing
gas piping to prevent damage to the gas valve and
manifold assembly.

COMBUSTION AND INPUT CHECK
1. Make sure all gas appliances are off except the fur-
nace.
2. Clock the gas meter with the furnace operating (de-
termine the dial rating of the meter) for one revolu-
tion.
3. Match the “Sec” column in the gas flow (in cfh)
Table 13 with the time clocked.
4. Read the “Flow” column opposite the number of sec-
onds clocked.
5. Use the following factors
if necessary:
For 1 Cu. Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH =
Chart Flow Reading ÷2
For 1/2 Cu Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH =
Chart Flow Reading ÷4
For 5 Cu. Ft. Dial Gas Flow CFH =
10X Chart Flow Reading ÷4
6. Multiply the final figure by the heating value of the
gas obtained from the utility company and compare
to the nameplate rating. This must not exceed the
nameplate rating.
7. Changes can be made by adjusting the manifold
pressure or changing orifices (orifice change may
not always be required). To adjust the manifold
pressure:
a. Turn off all electrical power to the system.
b.Attach a manifold pressure gauge to the outlet
pressure tap marked "OUT PRESS TAP" on
White-Rodgers gas valve model 36F or boss
marked "OUT P" on White-Rodgers gas valve
model 36G. (See Figure 53 for White-Rodgers gas
valve model 36F and Figure 54 for White-Rodgers
gas valve model 36G.). For the gas valve model
36F, measurement requires removal of the plug
and installation of a barbed fitting. Attach flexible
tubing and a manometer to the barbed fitting.
For the gas valve model 36G, do not remove the
pressure tap test screw. Using a 3/32" hex
wrench, loosen the pressure tap test screw one
turn and install 5/16" flexible tubing and a ma-
nometer directly onto the outlet pressure boss.
c. Turn on system power and energize valve.
d.Remove the regulator adjustment screw cap on
the gas valve for manifold pressure adjustment.
e.Turn the adjustment nut clockwise to increase
the gas flow rate, and counterclockwise to de-
crease the gas flow rate using a 3/32" hex wench.
f. The final manifold pressure setting shall be as
specified in Table 12 with an input of no more
than nameplate rating and no less than 93% of
the nameplate rating, unless the unit is derated
for high altitude.
g.Replace the regulator adjustment screw cap and
tighten securely.
h.Turn off all electrical power to the system.
i. Remove the manometer and flexible tubing. Re-
move the barbed fitting and replace the plug or
tighten the pressure test screw.
j. Turn on electrical power to the system and ener-
gize valve.
k.Using a leak detection solution or soap suds,
check for leaks at plug or pressure boss screw.
