ORIFICE SIZE/ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT

For altitudes above 2,000 feet (In Canada 4,500 FT/1370 M),the orifice
should be de-rated by 4% for every 1,000 feet to maintain the proper
ratio of gas to air . Improper orifice sizing may result in damage and
unsafe conditions . Changing the orifice should only be done by a quali-
fied service technician . Contact your Lennox Hearth Products dealer for
proper orifice sizes .

SMOKE DETECTORS

Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we
recommend installing smoke detectors . If possible, install the smoke
detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by the appliance) . If
your local code requires a smoke detector be installed within the same
room, you must follow the requirements of your local code . Check with
your local building department for requirements in your area .
