HIGH ALTITUDE
MANIFOLD PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT

1.

Turn off manual gas valve.

2.

Remove manifold pressure tap plug marked “Outlet
Pressure Tap” from gas valve using 3/16” Allen wrench.
Install ⅛” NPT x ¼” barbed fi tting. See Figure #1

3.

Connect manometer or gauge to gas valve pressure
tap barbed fi tting just installed in step 1. Manometer
should be capable of reading 1 to 15 inches of water
column. See Figure #2.

4.

Turn electrical power and gas supply on. Set
thermostat high enough to start boiler.

5.

Start boiler.

6.

Note gas manifold pressure on manometer or gauge.
Manometer or gauge reading should be 2½ inches
water column at start up.

7.

To adjust manifold pressure, remove “Pressure
Regulator Adjustment Cap” located on gas valve
to gain access to regulator adjustment screw. Turn
adjustment screw clockwise to increase pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease pressure. See Figure
#1.

NOTICE

When doing this procedure, place pressure regulator

cap back in place to obtain correct reading. Not

putting cap in place gives false reading of manifold

pressure.

8.

Adjust manifold pressure to indicated value using
known gas Btu value and known altitude of installation.
See Tables #1 and #2 on following pages.
