On multiple unit installations, each unit should be checked
separately, with and without units operating. Supply pres-
sure must fall within range listed in TABLE 13.
Check Manifold Pressure
After supply pressure has been checked and adjusted,
check manifold pressure. Move pressure gauge to outlet
pressure tap located on unit gas valve (GV1). Checks of

Follow the steps below. Gas manifold Kit 10L34 provides
additional components if needed.
1 - Connect the test gauge positive side “+“ to manifold
pressure tap on gas valve.
2 - Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and
connect to test gauge negative “-”.
3 - Start unit and let run for 5 minutes to allow for steady
state conditions.
