Described herein is a technique capable of properly attaching a nozzle to a reaction tube. According to one aspect thereof, there is provided a nozzle installation jig including: a lower plate configured to make contact with a process vessel in a vicinity of a lower end opening of the process vessel in which a nozzle is provided; a frame fixed to the lower plate and extending upward with respect to the lower plate; an upper plate fixed to the frame and provided with a sensor configured to detect a position of the nozzle in the process vessel; and a notification device configured to transmit a notification to an operator according to a detection result of the sensor.

Nozzle installation jig

There is provided a technique that includes executing a process recipe for processing a substrate; and executing a correction recipe for checking a characteristic value of a supply valve installed at a process gas supply line, wherein the act of executing the correction recipe comprises: supplying an inert gas into the process gas supply line for a certain period of time in a state where an adjusting valve that is installed at an exhaust portion of a process furnace and adjusts an internal pressure of the process furnace is fully opened; detecting a pressure value in a supply pipe provided with the supply valve while supplying the inert gas into the process gas supply line in the state where the adjusting valve is fully opened; and calculating the characteristic value of the supply valve based on the detected pressure value.
