HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS

Intertek Testing Lab listed gas appliances are tested and approved without requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in the U.S.A. and 0 to 4500 feet in Canada.

When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a 2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. If the heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.

If installing this appliance in Canada at an elevation above 4500 feet, check with local authorities.
