Zusammenfassung:An integrated furnace controller (IFC) for use in a gas-powered heating system includes a modulating gas valve assembly having a modulating gas valve to variably control a flow of gas through the gas valve assembly and a control circuit. The IFC includes a processor, a memory, and a communication interface. The IFC is communicatively coupled to the modulating gas valve assembly and a mobile device. The memory stores instructions that program the processor to receive, using the communication interface, a valve offset output from the mobile device, store the valve offset in the memory, receive a call for heat, and output one or more commands to the modulating gas valve assembly in response to the call for heat. The one or more commands causing the modulating gas valve assembly to control the modulating gas valve based on a desired gas flow rate and the valve offset.
