pressures should be between 4 inches

XL Installation and Operation Manual for detailed

 

w.c. and 14 inches w.c. LP gas pressures

information concerning the gas supply.

 

 

should be between 8 inches w.c. and 14

 

 

 

inches w.c.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

- Gas/air mixture problem.

 

• Refer to the Gas Valve Adjustment Procedure

on

 

 

 

page 45 of this manual for the proper gas valve setting.
