This furnace is shipped from the factory configured for natural gas
at standard altitude. Propane gas installations require an orifice
change to compensate for the energy content difference between
natural and propane gas.
High altitude installations may require both a pressure switch and
an orifice change. These changes are necessary to compensate
for the natural reduction in the density of both the gas fuel and the
combustion air at higher altitude.
For installations above 7000 feet, please refer to your distributor
for required kit(s).
