12− If the appliance will not operate, follow the instructions
To Turn Off Gas To Unit" and call your service techni-
cian or gas supplier.
Turning Off Gas To Unit
1 − Set thermostat to lowest setting.
2 Turn off all electrical power to unit if service is to be per-
formed.
3 − Remove access panel.
4 − WhiteRodgers natural valve, move lever to OFF. White-
Rodgers propane and Honeywell valve, turn knob to
OFF. Do not force.
5 − Replace access panel.
NOTE−On initial start−ups and when condensate trap is
dry, unit may turn itself off and on to allow condensate
trap to fill. This is normal operation.
C−Safety or Emergency Shutdown
Turn off unit power. Close manual and main gas valves.
D−Extended Period Shutdown
Turn off thermostat or set to UNOCCUPIED" mode. Close
all gas valves (both internal and external to unit) to guaran-
tee no gas leak into combustion chamber. Turn off power to
unit. All access panels, covers and vent caps must be in
place and secured.
Refer to Maintenance" section of this manual for instruc-
tions on how to prepare condensate assembly for extended
period shutdown.
IV−HEATING SYSTEM SERVICE CHECKS
AA.G.A./C.G.A. Certification
All units are A.G.A. and C.G.A. design certified without mod-
ifications. Refer to the G32V Operation and Installation In-
struction Manual Information.
B−Exhaust CO
2
and CO content
Carbon Dioxide is a colorless and odorless gas produced in
small amounts by all furnaces, including the G32V, during
combustion process. See table 31 or 32 for CO
2
levels
when the unit is properly installed and operating normally. If
unit appears to be operating normally at or beyond the up-
per limit of the CO
2
range, the unit should be checked for
abnormally high CO.
CO content will be less than 0.04% (400 PPM) in an air free
sample regardless of the firing rate used.

Testing for abnormally high CO
2
and CO.
One method for testing the CO
2
/CO content is the Bachar-
ach CO
2
test with the Fyrite CO
2
indicator. Other methods
of testing CO
2
/CO are available. Closely follow the instruc-
tions included in the test kit you choose. Follow the proce-
dure below in order to check CO
2
/CO on the G32V furnace.
1 − Drill size "R" or 11/32 in. on the exhaust vent, just exit-
ing the cabinet and tap 1/8−27 NPT. This hole will be
used to draw your CO
2
/CO sample.
2 − Install a hose barb connector into test hole.
3 − Attach one end of Fyrite sampling tube to hose barb.
4 − Set thermostat to highest setting and allow unit to run
15 minutes.
5 − When CO
2
/CO testing is complete, turn off unit, re-
move hose barb from exhaust vent and use a1/8" plas-
tic plug (46F4801) to close off port.
C−Gas Piping
Gas supply piping should not allow more than 0.5"W.C. drop
in pressure between gas meter and unit. Supply gas pipe
must not be smaller than unit gas connection.
D−Testing Gas Piping
When pressure testing gas lines, the gas valve must be dis-
connected and isolated. Gas valves can be damaged if
subjected to more than 0.5psig (14" W.C.). See figure 51. If
the pressure is equal to or less than 0.5psig (14"W.C.), use
the manual shut−off valve before pressure testing to isolate
furnace from gas supply.

In case emergency shutdown is required, turn off

power to unit. These controls should be properly
labeled by the installer.
