Table 14 Minimum inlet gas pressure under full operation

BTurn on high volume of hot water flow (at least 6 gpm) and heater will ignite. If heater display reverts to

P2, open more hot water fixtures to allow sufficient

flow. Press until P1 reappears on display.

BOperate all other gas appliances on the same gas piping system at maximum output.

B Record lowest operating gas pressure reading in table 15.

Gas pressures lower than 3.5" W.C. for Natural Gas or 8" W.C. for LPG will result in insufficient degree rise to the hot water being used, reduced hot water volume, possible error code faults and must be corrected. See Gas Connections, chapter 3.8, page 22.
