High altitude installation

Your DESA direct-vent fireplace has been tested and approved for elevations from 0-2,000 feet (USA) and elevations from 0-4,500 feet (Canada)

Fireplaces for High Altitude (models ending in -HA) are for installation above 4,000 feet only. These fireplaces are equipped with parts specific for higher altitudes. IMPORTANT: These fire- places can NOT be converted to propane/LP gas. When installing a non-high altitude fireplace at an elevation above 2,000 feet (USA), you may need to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Reduce input 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level. Check with your local gas company for proper orifice size identification.

When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4,500 feet (Canada), check with local authorities.

IMPORTANT: For horizontal installations above 2,000 feet, it is recommened that a 12" extension pipe be added before starter elbow (see Figure 33).
