WARNING
NEVER test for a gas leak with an open flame.
NOTE
The factory piping has been checked for leaks, but 
should be rechecked due to shipping and installation.
Connect the Supply Gas Line
A manual shut off valve (gas cock), 1/8 in. plugged test 
port and 6 in. drip leg must be installed prior to the gas 
train. The valve and the test port must be accessible for 
the connection of a test gauge. Supply gas connections 
must be made by a qualified installer and are not 
furnished by manufacturer.
WARNING
Reference the National Fuel Gas Code for additional 
vent line requirements.
Test the System for Leaks
Check both the supply lines and the factory piping for 
leaks. Apply a soap and water solution to all piping and 
watch for bubbling which indicates a leak.
Installation of Building Pressure 
Control (optional)
Mount Pressure Tap
Using the factory provided bracket, mount the pressure 
tap to the outside of the 
unit. Choose a location 
out of the prevailing 
winds and away from 
supply or exhaust fans 
to assure accurate 
readings.
Run Pressure Tap Lines
Run a pressure tap line from the pressure tap on the 
outside of the unit to the low pressure tap on the back 
of the photohelic gauge. Run a second pressure tap line 
from the high pressure tap on the back of the photohelic 
gauge to the space. Fifty feet of tubing is supplied with 
the unit.
Set the Building Pressure
The pressure gauge is used to set the desired building 
pressure. The pressure is set by adjusting the knobs for 
the upper and lower pressure limits. Typical settings are 
0.0 in. wg for the lower and 0.10 in. wg for the upper 
pressure setting.
