To Test and Adjust Gas (Water Column) Pressure

There are two (2) types of devices commonly used to measure water column pressure. They are spring/mechanical-type gauges and manometers. The spring/mechanical-type gauge is not recommended, because it is easily damaged and not always accurate. A manometer is simply a glass or transparent plastic tube with a scale in inches. When filled with water and pressure applied, the water in the tube rises showing the exact water column pressure.

NOTE: Manometers are available from the factory by ordering ADC Part No. 122804.

1. To Test Gas Water Column (W.C.) Pressure:

a. Connect water column test gauge connection to gas valve pressure tap (1/8” NPT). This pressure tap is located on the outlet (manifold) side of the valve.

b. Start dryer. With burner on, the correct water column reading in inches would be:

Natural Gas - 3.5 Inches Water Column (8.7 mb).

L.P. Gas - 10.5 Inches Water Column (26.1 mb).
