Remove the 5/16" screw used to mount the vent pipe
assembly to the mounting bracket. Keep this screw.
Five holes have been drilled into the vent extension
(see Figure 4). Four of those holes are provided so
that the vent can be extended the necessary length
required for the installation. The wall sleeve that is
installed determines which of these clearance holes
should be used. Using Table 2 and Figure 4, determine which clearance hole should be used to position
the vent extension properly. Slide the vent extension
outward and line up the correct clearance hole on the
vent extension with the hole in the vent pipe and the
hole in the mounting bracket.
Re-install the 5/16" screw that was removed in Step 3.
Thread the screw first through the clearance hole in
the mounting bracket, the proper clearance hole in the
vent extension, and into the engagement hole in the
vent pipe. The length of the vent pipe extension that

Table 2.
Installing

and Securing Unit to Wall Sleeve

Before installing and securing the unit to the wall sleeve,
make sure that the proper louver kit is installed. Due the
high temperatures of the combustion products released
from the gas vent, MGE gas package units require the use
of either an aluminum louver kit or special MGE polypropylene louver kit (see ACCESSORIES on page 17).

and Adjusting Gas input

The gas input must not exceed the figures shown on the
rating plate. The unit is equipped for rated inputs with
manifold pressures of: 3.5" W.C. for natural gas and 10.0"
W.C. for propane. The furnace requires conversion for use
with propane (a propane conversion kit is available from
the manufacturer).
The manifold pressure can be measured by removing the
pipe plug in the downstream side of the gas valve and
connecting a water manometer or gauge.
Only small variations in gas input may be made by
adjusting the regulator. In no case should the final
manifold pressure vary more than 0.3" W.C. for
natural gas or 0.7" W.C. for propane.
To adjust the regulator, turn the adjusting screw on the
regulator clockwise to increase pressure and input or
counterclockwise to decrease pressure and input.

For Natural Gas: Check the furnace rate by observing the
gas meter, when available, making sure all other gas
appliances are turned off. The test hand on the meter
should be timed for at least one revolution. Note the
number of seconds for one revolution.

Value

The heating value of the gas can be obtained from the
local utility company.
For Propane Gas: The only check for the furnace rate is
to properly adjust the manifold pressure using a manometer and the information found in Table 5 on page 14.

Above 7500 feet, call Technical Services at 1-800448-5872 ext. 2610.

Table 5
The system should be checked to see that none of the
wiring is loose or missing.
System

Performance

For maximum performance of the cooling system, the
operating temperatures and pressures should be checked
and superheat determined at Standard ARI test conditions
of 82°F outdoor- 80°F indoor dry bulb/67°F wet bulb. If
superheat measured deviates from the values given in
Table 6, refrigerant charge should be adjusted accordingly
for maximum performance.

The blower will start approximately 30 seconds after the
burners ignite and will stop approximately 120 seconds
after the thermostat is satisfied. The time delay is preset at
the factory and timing cannot be adjusted.
When the thermostat system switch is set for "COOL", the
blower will start 5 seconds after the thermostat calls for
cooling and will stop 90 seconds after the thermostat is
satisfied.
A fan switch is provided on the thermostat which will bring
the blower on for continuous operation when the switch is
set for "ON".
Limit Control
A fixed temperature limit control is provided which will shut
off the gas to the burners if the unit is overheated for any
reason. The control must not be adjusted or relocated.

Blower

Rollout Switch

The unit contains a direct-drive, multispeed blower. The
proper speeds have been preset at the factory for heating
and cooling. Refer to the wiring diagram for recommended
heating/cooling speeds for specific models. Direct-drive
blower motors are permanently lubricated and do not
require oiling.

If for any reason the exchanger were to become blocked,
there is a temperature sensitive switch located above the
burners that will turn off the burners. After correcting the
problem, this switch must be manually reset by pressing
the button on top of it.
High Altitude

Blower Operation
Continuous operation of the air handling blower will be
obtained if the thermostat fan switch is set to "ON". With the
thermostat fan switch set to "AUTO", the air handling blower
will cycle corresponding with the thermostat cycling.

In both the United States and Canada, this unit is approved for operation at altitudes from 0 to 4500 feet above
sea level without any required modifications. From 4500 to
7500 feet, the gas manifold pressure needs to be adjusted
according to the information shown in Table 5. To adjust the

Installation
and Operation
Weather Areas

in Extremely

Cold

In areas where extremely cold outdoor temperatures
(below - 20°F) can be expected, some additional installation and operating precautions should be taken. The
following precautions are designed to prevent possible
vent system ice blockage that could result in safety
shutdown of the burners:
,

Adjust to the highest achievable temperature rise
within the rise and static pressure ranges specified on
the rating plate. Depending on specific model, it may
be possible to change to a lower heating blower speed
tap to get a higher temperature rise. This also increases comfort.

2.

Make sure there are no leaks of outside air into the
return air system.

3.

Keep the outside louver grille as free as possible of
any ice that may form and obstruct the flue outlet.

MAINTENANCE

Cooling

System

The refrigeration system normally requires no maintenance since it is a closed, self-contained system. Periodic
maintenance is limited to:
Cleaning the air filter. Follow directions noted on the
filter and label attached to the access panel.
Cleaning the condenser coil if covered with any
foreign material, lint, leaves, or other obstructions.
Burners

The burners can be removed for cleaning or changing
orifices. To remove the burners:
1.

Disconnect electrical service and turn off gas to the
appliance.

2.

Disconnect the high voltage (spark plug) wire and the
flame sensor wire (Sl) from the ignition control.

3.

Remove spark and sense rods.

4.

Remove the four screws that mount the burner right
side plate (houses the spark/sense probes).

5.

Carefully remove the burner right side plate.

6.

Burners are now exposed and can be individually
removed from assembly by removing the two screws
that hold each burner in the burner rack.

Burners can be cleaned using a bottle brush.
Orifices are threaded into the gas manifold and can be
removed by unscrewing.
When replacing the burner tray assembly, take care in
installing the sense and spark rods back into the burner
plate. Reconnect the spark and sense wires.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger should be inspected periodically and
cleaned if necessary. If cleaning is necessary, use a stiff
brush with a wire handle to remove scale and soot. While
cleaning the heat exchanger, the vent extension tube
should also be cleaned. Remove the four screws on the
combustion blower mounting plate and take out the blower.
Use a brush to clean the vent extension tube.
