Furnace Shutdown; Gas Supply Pressure Measurement - Whirlpool WGFD293 Installation Instructions Manual

Furnace Shutdown

1. Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
The integrated control will close the gas control valve and
extinguish the flame. Following a 15-second delay, the
induced draft blower will be de-energized. After a 120-, 150-,
180- or 210-second delay period (field-selectable delay Off
[90, 120, 150, 180] plus a 30-second ramp down), the
circulator blower de-energizes.
2. Remove the burner compartment door and move the furnace
gas control valve manual control to the Off position.
3. Close the manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.
4. Replace the burner compartment door.

Gas Supply Pressure Measurement

CAUTION
To prevent unreliable operation or equipment damage,
the inlet gas supply pressure must be as specified on the
unit rating plate with all other household gas-fired
appliances operating.
The line pressure supplied to the gas control valve must be within
the range specified below. The supply pressure can be measured
at the gas control valve inlet pressure boss or at a hose fitting
installed in the gas piping drip leg. The supply pressure must be
measured with the burners operating. To measure the gas supply
pressure, use the following procedure.

1. Turn off the gas to furnace at the manual gas shutoff valve
external to the furnace.
2. Disconnect all electrical power to the system.
3. Connect a calibrated water manometer (or appropriate gas
pressure gauge) at either the gas control valve inlet pressure
boss or the gas piping drip leg. See Gas Control Valve—
Honeywell VR9205 Connected to Manometer or Gas Control
Valve—White-Rodgers 36G54 Connected to Manometer for
location of inlet pressure boss/tap.
NOTE: If measuring the gas pressure at the drip leg or on the
Honeywell VR9205 gas control valve, a field-supplied hose barb
fitting must be installed prior to making the hose connection. If
using the inlet pressure boss on the White-Rodgers 36G54 gas
control valve, then use the 36G Valve Pressure Check Kit, Part
Number 0151K00000S.
4. Turn on the gas supply and operate the furnace and all other
gas consuming appliances on the same gas supply line.
5. Measure the furnace gas supply pressure with burners firing.
