The 36E22-214 combination gas valve is designed for
direct spark ignition (DSI), hot surface ignition (HSI) and
proven pilot system applications. This valve is equipped
with redundant (pilot) and main solenoid valves that con-
trol gas flow to the main burners and/or pilot, a field-
adjustable outlet pressure regulator, and a two-position
on/off switch for electrical shut-off.

CAUTION
!
WARNING
!
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may
result, causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
DO NOT BEGIN INSTALLATION UNTIL YOU READ
THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS.
PRECAUTIONS
1. Turnoffelectricalpowertothesystematthefusebox
or circuit breaker. Also turn off the main gas supply.
2. Ifreplacinganexistingvalve,disconnectallplumbing
and electrical connections from the old control.
3. The control may be installed in any position, except
upsidedown.Thearrowonthebottomplateindicates
the direction of gas flow through the valve.
4. You should use new pipe that is properly chamfered,
reamed, and free of burrs and chips. If you are using
old pipe, be sure it is clean and free of rust, scale,
burrs, chips, and old pipe joint compound.
5. Apply pipe joint compound (pipe dope) or teflon tape
that is approved for all gases, only to the male
threads of the pipe joints. DO NOT apply com-
poundorteflontapetothefirsttwothreads(seefig. 2
for typical piping connections).
1. Failure to turn off electric or main gas supply
toheatingsystemcouldcausepersonalinjury
and/or property damage by shock, gas suffo-
cation, fire, and/or explosion.
2. Do not use this control on circuits exceeding
specified voltage. Higher voltage will damage
the control and may cause shock or fire
hazard.
3. NEVERUSEFLAME OR ANY KIND OF SPARK
TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS–COULD CAUSE
FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION.
4. DONOTUSEWIREJUMPERonpilotsystems,
such as standing pilot, proven pilot, or spark-
to-pilot ignition–a fire and/or explosion may
result.
5. DonotuseacontrolsetfornaturalgaswithLP
gas, or a control set for LP gas with natural
gas. Personal injury and/or property damage,
gas suffocation, fire, and/or explosion may
result.
1. Do not short out terminals on gas valve or
primary control to test. Short or incorrect
wiring can cause equipment damage, prop-
erty damage, and/or personal injury.
2. This control is not intended for use in loca-
tionswhere itmay come in direct contact with
water.Suitableprotectionmustbeprovidedto
shield the control from exposure to water
(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.).
INSTALLATION
6. Ifyouareusingaviseoropen-endwrenchtoholdthe
valve while installing piping, do not tighten exces-
sively, as this may damage the valve.
7. See SYSTEM WIRING when making electrical con-
nections. After all gas and electrical connections are
completed, turn gas on and check for gas leaks with
leakdetectionsolutionorsoapsuds.Bubblesforming
indicate a leak. SHUT OFF GAS AND FIX ALL
LEAKS IMMEDIATELY.

INSTALLATION
PILOT GAS CONNECTION
This valve is shipped with the pilot outlet plugged. For
installations requiring pilot gas, remove the plug and use
the fitting packed separately with the valve.
Install the fitting into the pilot gas tapping, turning until
finger-tight (see fig. 4). Insert clean, deburred tubing all
the way through the fitting. Hold the tubing securely in
place and slowly tighten the fitting until you feel a slight
“give”. Then tighten the fitting an additional 1 1⁄2turns.
SeeADJUSTMENTsection(page4)andfig.5forpilotset
up.
REGULATOR VENT CONNECTION
This valve is shipped with a dust cap installed in the
regulator vent connection.
To install hose barb:
1. Remove dust cap.
2. Install hose barb and turn clockwise until finger tight,
then turn an additional 1⁄4turn with a wrench.
Allpiping mustcomply with local codes, ordinances,
and/or national fuel gas codes.

PRESSURE REGULATOR
ADJUSTMENT
These controls are shipped from the factory with the
regulatorsetfor3.5” W.C. (natural gas, full flow). Consult
the appliance rating plate to ensure burner manifold
pressureshouldbe3.5” W.C.Ifanotheroutletpressureis
required, follow these steps.
Ifavalvehasbeenfactory-adjustedforthe2.5to5inches
W.C.range,itcannotbefield-adjustedoutsidethatrange.
Thisisalsotrueforvalvesadjustedtothe7.5to12inches
W.C. range for LP gas.
1. Turn off all electrical power to the system.
2. Attach a manometer to the outlet pressure tap of the
valve (see fig. 4).
3. Turn on system power and energize valve.
4. Remove regulator cover screw and turn regulator
adjust screw clockwise to increase pressure, or
counterclockwise to decrease pressure (see
fig. 5). Always adjust regulator to provide the correct
pressure according to the original equipment
manufacturer’s specifications listed on the appliance
rating plate.
5. Replace regulator cover screw and tighten securely.
PILOT GAS ADJUSTMENT
These controls are factory preset to provide proper pilot
gas flow for most applications. If additional adjustment is
necessary, follow these steps.
1. Turn off all electrical power to the system before
making any adjustments.
2. Remove the pilot adjust cover screw and gasket to
expose the adjusting screw (see fig. 5). Turn the
adjustingscrewclockwise toreduce pilotflame,or
counterclockwise to increase pilot flame.
3. Replace the gasket and pilot adjust cover screw and
tighten securely.
4. Restore power to the system.
