Furnace input rate must be within ±2 percent of input on furnace rating plate.

1.Determine natural gas orifice size and manifold pressure for correct input.

a.Obtain yearly heat value average (at installed altitude) from local gas supplier.

b.Obtain yearly specific gravity average from local gas supplier.

c.Verify furnace model. Table 13 can only be used for model 355MAV furnaces.

d.Find installation altitude in Table 13.

NOTE: For Canada altitudes of 2000 to 4500 ft, use U.S.A. altitudes of 2001 to 3000 ft in Table 13.

e.Find closest natural gas heat value and specific gravity in Table 13.

f.Follow heat value and specific gravity lines to point of intersection to find orifice size and low- and high-heat manifold pressure settings for proper operation.

EXAMPLE: (0-2000 ft altitude) Heating value = 1050 Btu/cu ft Specific gravity = 0.62 Therefore: Orifice No. 45

Manifold pressure 3.6-in. wc for high heat 1.5-in. wc for low heat

*Furnace is shipped with No. 45 orifices. In this example, all main burner orifices are the correct size and do not need to be changed to obtain the proper input rate.

g.Check and verify burner orifice size in furnace. NEVER ASSUME ORIFICE SIZE; ALWAYS CHECK AND VERIFY.

2.Adjust manifold pressure to obtain input rate.

a.Remove burner enclosure front.

NOTE: Manifold pressure MUST always be measured with the burner box cover REMOVED.

b.Remove caps that conceal adjustment screws for low- and high-heat gas valve regulators. (See Fig. 56 .)

c.Move setup switch SW-2 on control center to ON position. (See Fig. 31.) This keeps furnace locked in low-heat operation.

d.Jumper R and W/W1 thermostat connections on control center to start furnace.

e.Turn low-heat adjusting screw (5/64 hex Allen wrench) counterclockwise (out) to decrease input rate or clockwise (in) to increase input rate.

355MAV specifications

The Bryant 355MAV is a remarkable model that stands out in the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) industry for its efficiency, reliability, and advanced technology. This unit is specifically designed to provide homeowners with excellent comfort while maintaining energy efficiency, making it an ideal choice for residential applications.

One of the standout features of the Bryant 355MAV is its variable speed compressor. This technology allows the system to adjust its cooling output based on the current temperature needs of the home. By operating at multiple speed levels, the compressor can maintain a more consistent indoor climate while using significantly less energy than traditional single-speed systems. This capability translates to lower energy bills and enhanced comfort.

Additionally, the Bryant 355MAV integrates an advanced control system that offers precise temperature regulation. Homeowners can easily set their desired indoor conditions, and the thermostat will communicate with the system to ensure optimal performance. This smart technology not only enhances comfort but also extends the lifespan of the unit by preventing unnecessary strain during operation.

The 355MAV also features significant advancements in sound reduction technology. Designed with noise-absorbing materials and a quiet operation mode, this unit ensures that indoor comfort is maintained without the disruption of loud operational sounds. This makes it a perfect choice for residential settings, particularly in areas where noise sensitivity is a concern.

Energy efficiency is another key characteristic of the Bryant 355MAV. The unit is certified with a high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating, which means it meets strict energy consumption standards. This not only reflects its eco-friendliness but also contributes to significant savings on utility bills over time.

Moreover, the Bryant 355MAV uses environmentally friendly refrigerants that comply with EPA regulations, further solidifying its commitment to sustainability. This, combined with durable construction and a reliable warranty, ensures that homeowners can expect lasting performance from the system.

In conclusion, the Bryant 355MAV offers an impressive array of features, including a variable speed compressor, advanced control systems, sound reduction technology, and high energy efficiency. These characteristics make it an exceptional option for those seeking a reliable and efficient HVAC solution in their homes. With its commitment to comfort, savings, and sustainability, the Bryant 355MAV continues to be a popular choice among homeowners looking to enhance their indoor environments.
