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

Figure 23:

b.Turn the inner plastic adjustment screw clockwise to increase, or counterclockwise to decrease, the gas pressure (and gas flow) to the main burner.

c.Replace the regulator cover screw and tighten it firmly to prevent gas leakage.

d.Referring to Table 5, measure the gas pressure and to confirm it has been adjusted to within the allowable range. Repeat adjustments (a) through (c), as required.

13.Adjust the room thermostat so the burner will operate on high fire only.

14.To obtain an accurate manifold gas pressure reading, the main burner must be cycled on and off several times to stabilize the gas control valve pressure regulator diaphragm.

15.Allow the burner to operate for at least 3 minutes before taking gas pressure readings.

16.Using a pressure gauge, measure the burner manifold gas pressure.

17.If checking the input rate by measuring burner manifold pressure, proceed to step 18. If measuring the input rate by clocking the gas meter, repeat steps 9 through 11, above.

SAFETY INFORMATION This and the previous page contain reproductions of the various warning and instruction labels placed on the Thermo Pride Two Stage Condensing Gas Furnaces. Please read and comply with the contents of these labels 1.A windows be opened The CHX3/CDX3 furnace models are sealed combustion design, which does not require an air shutter adjustment air shutters are not used for proper flame characteristics.

Measuring And Adjusting Heat Input Rate Observe the following precautions when measuringA.Burner manifold pressure with a pressure gauge B.Gas flowrate by clocking gas meterNOTICE A U-tubemanometer, measuring pressure in inches of water column, is recommended for all gas pressure measurements. However, an aneroid pressure gauge, in good working condition, capable of reading pressure changes of 0.05 in. W.G., or less, that was recently calibrated within the last year, is a satisfactory alternate. These two 2 devices will be considered as equivalent and interchangeable.
