8.Remove regulator cover screw from the low (LO) outlet pressure regulator adjust tower and turn screw clockwise to increase pressure, or counterclockwise to decrease pressure.

9.Energize main (M) solenoid as well as the HI terminal.

10. Remove regulator cover screw from the HI outlet pressure regulator adjust tower and turn screw clockwise to increase pressure, or counterclockwise to decrease pressure.

11. Turn off all electrical power and gas supply to the system. 12. Remove manometer hose from outlet pressure boss.

13. Turn outlet pressure test screw in to seal pressure port (clockwise, 7 in-lb minimum).

14. Turn on electrical power and gas supply to the system.

15. Turn on system power and energize valve.

16. Using a leak detection solution or soap suds, check for leaks at pressure boss screw. Bubbles forming indicate a leak. SHUT OFF GAS AND FIX ALL LEAKS IMMEDIATELY.

NOTE:For gas to gas conversion, consult your dealer for appropriate conversion.

Gas Input (Natural Gas Only) Check

To measure the gas input use a gas meter and proceed as follows:

1.Turn off gas supply to all other appliances except the unit.

2.With the unit operating, time the smallest dial on the meter for one complete revolution. If this is a 2 cubic foot dial, divide the seconds by 2; if it is a 1 cubic foot dial, use the seconds as is. This gives the seconds per cubic foot of gas being delivered to the unit.

3.INPUT=GAS HTG VALUE x 3600 / SEC. PER CUBIC FOOT Example: Natural gas with a heating value of 1000 BTU per cubic foot and 34 seconds per cubic foot as determined by Step 2, then:

Input = 1000 x 3600 / 34 = 106,000 BTU per Hour. NOTE: BTU content of the gas should be obtained from the gas supplier. This measured input must not be greater than shown on the unit rating plate.

4.Relight all other appliances turned off in step 1. Be sure all pilot burners are operating.

Main Burner Flame Check

Flames should be stable, soft and blue (dust may cause orange tips but they must not be yellow) and extending directly outward from the burner without curling, floating or lifting off.

Temperature Rise Check

Check the temperature rise through the unit by placing thermometers in supply and return air registers as close to the unit as possible. Thermometers must not be able to sample temperature directly from the unit heat exchangers, or false readings could be obtained.

1.All registers must be open; all duct dampers must be in their final (fully or partially open) position and the unit operated for 15 minutes before taking readings.

2.The temperature rise must be within the range specified on the rating plate.

NOTE: Air temperature rise is the temperature difference between supply and return air.

With a properly designed system, the proper amount of temperature rise will normally be obtained when the unit is operated at rated input with the recommended blower speed.

If the correct amount of temperature rise is not obtained, it may be necessary to change the blower speed. A higher blower speed will lower the temperature rise.Aslower blower speed will increase the temperature rise.

NOTE: Blower speed MUST be set to give the correct air temperature rise through the unit as marked on the rating plate.

External Static Pressure Check

The total external static pressure must be checked on this unit to determine if the airflow is proper.

Blower Speed Adjustments

RangeWARNING

TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO ELECTRIC SHOCK, REMOVE ELECTRICAL POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE CHANGING SPEED TAPS ON THE BLOWER MOTOR.

Refer to the wiring diagram in the appendix to verify speed tap settings.

Depending upon the model, blower speeds are changed at the indoor blower. The ignition control board has four blower speeds: LOW HEAT, HI HEAT, LOW COOL and HIGH COOL.

NOTE: FAN ONLY energizes at LOW HEAT speed.

The *PG15 models are equipped with EEM motors. EEM motors are constant torque motors with very low power consumption. This motor is energized by 24VAC. Adjust the CFM for the unit by changing the 24VAC leads to the speed terminal block on the motor.

NOTE: Heating airflow must be adjusted to provide the temperature rise shown on rating plate. A higher speed tap may not provide more airflow. Blower speeds are programmed to deliver adequate airflow at rated external static pressure (ESP). Refer to airflow table provided in the Appendix for details.

Limit Check

Check limit control operation after 15 minutes of operation by blocking the return air grille(s).

1.After several minutes the main burners must go OFF. Blower will continue to run.

2.Remove air restrictions and main burners will relight after a cool down period of a few minutes.

Adjust the thermostat setting below room temperature.

1.Main burners must go OFF.

2.Circulating Air Blower will continue to run for 90, 120, 150 or 180 seconds, depending on the setting.
