GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR The gas pressure regulator is preset at 4.0 in. WC for natural gas (3.1 in. WC for Lo NOx), and 10.5 in. WC. for propane gas. The pressure at the gas valve, taken with a manometer, should be about 4.0 in. WC natural gas (3.1 in. WC for Lo NOx) and 10.5 in. WC propane gas. If an adjustment is needed, remove seal and turn adjustment screw clockwise to increase pres- sure or counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. NOTE: Lo NOx gas valves are non-adjustable; settings are fixed by the manufacturer (Invensys/Robertshaw).

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator is preset at 4.0 in. WC for
natural gas (3.1 in. WC for Lo NOx), and 10.5 in. WC.
for propane gas. The pressure at the gas valve, taken
with a manometer, should be about 4.0 in. WC natural
gas (3.1 in. WC for Lo NOx) and 10.5 in. WC propane
gas. If an adjustment is needed, remove seal and turn
adjustment screw clockwise to increase pres-
sure or counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
NOTE:
Lo NOx gas valves are non-adjustable; set-
tings are fixed by the manufacturer
(Invensys/Robertshaw).
