All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.

BTU at sea level must be reduced to a firing rate of 64,000 (80,000 x .80 = 64,000) at an elevation of 5,000 feet. If the furnace is installed at an elevation of 2,000 feet or less, no reduction in input is required. Your gas supplier may supply you with the correct orifice sizing information.

To check the heat input rate of your natural gas furnace, allow the unit to operate for 10 to 15 minutes and proceed as follows:

a. Call your gas supplier and ask for the BTU content (heating value) of one cubic foot of the gas, supplied to the installation area. An alternate approach is to assume a value of 1025 BTU/Cu Ft, which is the national average.

b. With all other gas appliances turned off and using a stopwatch, clock the time required for the (small) dial on the gas meter to make one full revolution. The meter dial will state the cubic feet of flow for one revolution usually one, two or five.

FORMULA: BTU/Cu Ft x Number of Cu Ft x 3600 Seconds = Input BTU/hr Seconds for one revolution

EXAMPLE: 1025 BTU/Cu Ft x 2 Cu Ft x 3600 = 78,678 BTU Input 93.80 Seconds

Check the model number of the furnace, the input rate, the type of gas, and the manifold pressure on the rating label located in the burner vestibule. If using the above example, the furnace is a GMD1-80N model and the input rate is 78,678 BTU/hr. The input rate would be acceptable because it was within + 2% of the listed input of 80,000.

c. Make sure that the gas supply pressure to the furnace is within the allowable range of 5.5" to 14" WC pressure on natural gas and 11.0" to 14.0" WC on propane gas. The pressure to the furnace must be checked while the furnace burner and any other gas appliances on the same supply system are operating, using the 1/8 in. NPT manifold pressure tap shown in figure 8.
