2. Clean orifice with a smooth wood toothpick, do not enlarge.
1. This is especially true when a dwelling or room is enlarged. Have the heat loss
calculated and compare to furnace output. Your gas company can supply you with
this information. If furnace is undersized, replace with correct size unit.
2. Raise temperature setting.
3. Check supply pressure.
1. Lower temperature setting.
2. Replace combination control valve.
1. Check millivoltage and replace if low.
2. Check input rate.
3. Tighten wing nuts securing cover and sight glass. Check and replace gasket if
needed.
4. Follow instructions. Check both exhaust and air intake tubes, and vent cap.
Be sure all gaskets are in place and properly sealed. Use only tubes and vent
