NOTES

The cubic feet per hour listed above must be greater than the cubic feet per hour of gas fl ow required by the equipment. 
To determine the required cubic feet per hour of gas fl ow, divide the input rate of the unit by the heating value (from gas 
supplier) of the gas.

Cubic Feet Per Hour Required =

Input To Furnace (Btu/hr)

Heating Value of Gas (Btu/Cu. Ft.)
