High Elevation Installation

Your fireplace or fire pit is approved for elevations up to 4500 feet in the US and Canada.

When installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 feet in the US, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Reduce the input by 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating value of the gas has been reduced, in which case this general rule will not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with your local gas utility.

When installing this unit at an elevation above 4,500 feet in Canada check with your local authorities. Consult the local gas utility for assis- tance in determining the proper orifice for your location.
