2. To avoid dangerous accumulation of fuel gas,
turn off gas supply at the appliance service
valve before starting installation, and perform
Gas Leak Test after completion of installation.
3. Do not attempt to use a control set for natural
(manufactured) gas on LP gas, or a control set
for LP on natural (manufactured) gas.
4. Do not bend pilot tubing at control or pilot after
compression nut has been tightened, or gas
leakage at the connection may result.
5. Always install sediment trap in gas supply line
to prevent contamination of gas control.
6. Do not force the gas control knob. Use only
your hand to push down the reset button or
turn the gas control knob. Never use any tools.
If the knob or reset button will not operate by
hand, the control should be replaced by a
qualified service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in fire or explosion.
CAUTION
Never apply a jumper across or short the valve
coil terminals. This may burn out the heat
anticipator in the thermostat.
IMPORTANT
These gas controls are shipped with protective
seals over inlet and outlet tappings. Do not
remove seals until ready to connect piping.
Follow the appliance manufacturer’s instructions if
available; otherwise, use the instructions provided below
as a guide.
Convert between Natural and LP Gas
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard can cause property
damage, severe-injury or death.
Do not attempt to use a control set for natural
(manufactured) gas on LP gas, or a control set for
LP on natural (manufactured) gas.
To convert a control from natural gas to LP gas, or from LP
gas to natural gas, contact your Resideo representative.
Install Adapters to Control
If adapters are to be installed on the gas control, mount
them as follows:
Flanges:
1. Choose the appropriate flanges for your application.
NOTE: A right angle inlet flange cannot be used with
ECO connected.
2. Remove seal over control inlet or outlet.
3. Check to ensure that the O-ring is fitted in the
groove of flange. If the O-ring is not attached or is
missing, do not use the flange.
4. With O-ring facing valve, line up the screw holes on
the control with the holes in the flange. Insert and
tighten the screws provided with the flange (See
Fig. 1). Tighten the screws to 25 in.-lbs (2.8 N·m)
of torque to provide a gas-tight seal.
Bushings:
1. Remove seal over control inlet and outlet.
2. Apply moderate amount of good quality pipe
compound to bushing, leaving two end threads
bare. On LP installation, use compound resistant to
LP gas. Do NOT use Teflon™ tape.
3. Insert bushing in control and thread pipe carefully
into bushing until tight.

adapters and screws. If you use a wrench on the valve
after flanges are installed, use the wrench only on the
flange, not the control.
Using Adapters to Solve Swing
Radius Problems
In some field service applications, it is difficult or
impossible to thread the control onto the gas supply pipe
because of space limitations. This problem can be
resolved in many instances through the use of an
adapter.
The adapter is installed on the end of the supply pipe in
place of the gas control, following the same precautions
and instructions that are used for installing the gas
control. After the adapter is installed, the gas control is
attached to the adapter as outlined above. Note that use
of an adapter increases the overall length of the gas
control.
Location
Do not locate the combination gas control where adverse
environments such as steam cleaning, high humidity or
dipping water, corrosive chemicals, dust or grease
accumulation, or excessive heat are prevalent. To ensure
proper operation, follow these guidelines:
• Locate in a well ventilated area.
• Mount high enough above the cabinet bottom to avoid
exposure to flooding or splashing water.
• Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed
the ambient temperature ratings for each component.
• Cover if appliance is cleaned with water, steam, or
chemicals or to avoid dust and grease accumulation.
• Avoid locating where exposure to corrosive chemical
fumes or dipping water is likely.
Mount the combination gas manifold. If this is a
replacement application, mount the control in same
location as old control.
Fig. 2. Sediment Trap Installation.
Install Piping to Control
All piping must comply with local codes and ordinances
or with the Natural Fuel Gas Codes (ANSI Z223.1 NFPA
No. 54), whichever applies. Tubing installation must
comply with approved standards and practices.
1. Use new, properly reamed pipe free from chips. If
tubing is used, make sure the ends are square,
deburred and clean. All tubing bends must be
smooth and without deformation.
2. Run pipe or tubing to the control. If tubing is used,
obtain a tube-to-pipe coupling to connect the tub-
ing to the control.
3. Install sediment trap in the supply line to the gas
control (See Fig. 2).
Install Control
1. This control can be mounted 0-90 degrees, in any
direction, from the upright position of the gas con-
trol knob, including vertically.
2. Mount the control so gas flow is in the direction of
the arrow on the bottom of the control.
3. Thread pipe the amount shown in Table 4 for
insertion into control. DO NOT THREAD PIPE TOO
FAR. Valve distortion or malfunction may result if
the pipe is inserted too deeply.
Table 4. NPT Pipe Thread Length (in.).
4. Apply a moderate amount of good quality pipe
compound (DO NOT use Teflon tape) to pipe only,
leaving two end threads bare. On LP installations,
use compound resistant to LP gas (See Fig. 3).
5. Remove seals over control inlet and outlet, if
necessary.
6. Connect pipe to control inlet and outlet. Use
wrench on the square ends of the control. If a
flange is used, place wrench on flange rather than
control (Refer to Fig. 4 and 5).

Connect Pilot Gas Tubing
1. Cut tubing to desired length and bend as necessary
for routing to pilot burner. Do not make sharp
bends or deform the tubing. Do not bend tubing at
control after compression nut has been tightened,
as this may result in gas leakage at the connection.
2. Square off and remove burrs from end of tubing.
3. Unscrew brass compression fitting from the pilot
outlet (Fig. 4). Slip the fitting over the tubing and
slide out of the way.
NOTE: When replacing a control, cut off old
compression fitting and replace with the
compression fitting provided on the
combination gas control. Never use the old
compression fitting as it may not provide a gas-
tight seal. Refer to Fig. 6.
Fig. 6. Always use New Compression Fitting.
4. Push tubing into the pilot gas tapping on the outlet
end of the control until it bottoms. While holding
tubing all the way in, slide fitting into place and
engage threads-turn until finger tight. Then tighten
one more turn with wrench. Do not overtighten.
5. Connect other end of tubing to pilot burner
according to pilot burner manufacturer's
instructions.

CAUTION
Check and Adjust Gas Input to Main Burner
1. Do not exceed input rating stamped on
appliance nameplate, or manufacturer's
recommended burner orifice pressure for size
orifice(s) used. Make certain primary air supply
to main burner is properly adjusted for
complete combustion. Follow appliance
manufacturer's instructions.
2. IF CHECKING GAS INPUT BY CLOCKING GAS
METER: Make certain there is no gas flow
through the meter other than to the appliance
being checked. Other appliances must remain
off with their pilots extinguished (or their
consumption must be deducted from the meter
reading). Convert flow rate to Btuh as
described in form 70-2602, Gas Controls
Handbook, and compare to the Btuh input
rating on appliance nameplate.
3. IF CHECKING GAS INPUT WITH MANOMETER:
Make certain gas control is in PILOT position
before removing outlet pressure tap plug to
connect manometer (pressure gauge). Also
turn gas control knob back to PILOT when
removing gauge and replacing plug. Before
removing inlet pressure tap plug, shut off gas
supply at the manual valve in the gas piping to
the appliance or, for LP, at the tank. Also shut
off gas supply before disconnecting
manometer and replacing plug. Repeat Gas
Leak Test at plug with main burner operating.
Standard Pressure Regulator
1. Check the manifold pressure listed on the appli-
ance nameplate. Gas control outlet pressure
should match the nameplate.
2. With main burner operating, check gas control flow
rate using the meter clocking method or pressure
using a manometer connected to the outlet
pressure tap on the gas control. Refer to Fig. 4.
3. If necessary, adjust pressure regulator to match
appliance rating. Refer to Table 7 for factory set
nominal outlet pressure and adjustment range.
a. Remove pressure regulator adjustment cap and
screw.
b. Using screwdriver, turn inner adjustment screw
clockwise to increase or
counterclockwise to decrease gas
pressure to burner.
c. Always replace cap screw and tighten firmly to
ensure proper operation.
4. If desired outlet pressure or flow rate cannot be
achieved by adjusting the control, check the
control inlet pressure using a manometer at the
inlet pressure tap. If inlet pressure is in normal
range (refer to Table 7), replace the control.
Otherwise, take the necessary steps to provide
proper gas pressure on the control.
Step-Opening and Slow Opening Pressure
Regulator
1. Check the full rate manifold pressure listed on the
appliance nameplate. Gas control full rate outlet
pressure should match this rating.
2. With main burner operating, check the control flow
rate using the meter clocking method or pressure
using a manometer connected to outlet pressure
tap on the control. Refer to Fig. 4.

Check Safety Shutdown Performance
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard can cause property
damage, severe injury or death.
Perform the safety shutdown test any time work
is done on a gas system.
1.
Place gas control knob in PILOT position. Main
burner should go off and pilot should remain lit.
2. Extinguish pilot flame. Pilot gas flow should
stop within 2-1/2 minutes. Safety shutoff of
pilot gas proves complete shutdown since
safety shutoff valve blocks flow of gas to main
burner and pilot.
3. Relight pilot burner and operate system
through one complete cycle to make sure all
controls operate properly.
SERVICE
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard can cause property
damage, severe injury or death.
Do not take this control apart; it contains no
replaceable components. Attempted disassembly
or repair may damage the control.
CAUTION
Do not apply jumper across (or short) the valve
coil terminals, even temporarily. Doing so may
burn out the heat anticipator in the thermostat.
If Pilot Will Not light
1. Make sure the main gas supply valve is open and
the pilot gas supply line is purged of air.
2. Attempt to light pilot following procedure in “Light
Pilot” on page 6.
3. If pilot will not light, check for:
a. closed pilot gas adjustment screw.
b. clogged pilot burner tubing or orifice.
c. gas leak at compression fitting.
If Pilot Goes Out When Reset Button
Is Released
1. Make sure the reset button is held in at least one
minute to allow the thermocouple time to heat.
2. Check pilot flame adjustment, see page 6.
3. Check the connection to the power unit. This is an
electrical connection and must be clean and secure.
4. If pilot still goes out, use a millivoltmeter to measure
the exact open circuit output voltages of the
thermocouple. Compare to acceptable range charts
in the thermocouple specifications. Replace the
thermocouple if voltages are outside the acceptable
range; otherwise, replace the gas control.
If Main Burner Will Not Come On
With Call For Heat
1. Confirm that gas control knob is in the ON position.
2. Adjust thermostat several degrees above room
temperature
3. Using ac voltmeter, measure voltage across
thermostat terminals at gas control.

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE
HOMEOWNER
For Your Safety Read Before
Lighting
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard can cause property
damage, severe injury or death.
Before lighting, smell all around the appliance
area for gas. If the appliance uses LP (bottled)
gas, also be sure to smell next to the floor
because LP gas is heavier than air. If you smell
gas, immediately shut off the manual valve in the
gas piping to the appliance, or, ON LP, AT THE
TANK. Do not try to light any appliance. Don't
touch any electrical switch or use the phone.
LEAVE THE BUILDING and call your gas supplier.
If your gas supplier cannot be reached, call the
fire department.
Do not force the gas control knob on the
appliance. Use only your hand to push down the
reset button or turn the gas control knob. Never
use any tools. If the knob or reset button will not
operate by hand, the control should be replaced
by a qualified service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in fire or explosion.
The gas control must be replaced if it has been
flooded with water. Call a qualified service
technician.
If the red reset button stays depressed after it is
released, the gas control should be replaced.
The gas control is a safety device. It must be
replaced in case of any physical damage such as
bent terminals, missing or broken parts, stripped
threads, or evidence of exposure to heat.
