any plumbers or HVAC folks,
I am going to replace my gas water heater soon, last time I did this I just tossed a new one in and fired it up, the flame looked good and I never gave it a second thought. my question is do you put a manometer on it or an exhaust gas analyzer on it and adjust the gas pressure? is this even a thing? I know when I installed a gas fired water heater for the hydronic heat I had the shop I bought it from check over my installation and work and adjust it. but I don't know if a domestic hot water heater even has provisions for adjustment. I am at about 4700' altitude if it matters.
