D. High Altitude Installations
Omni-Test Laboratories 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 at an elevation above 4500 feet (in
Canada), check with local authorities.
E. Non-Combustible Materials
Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136,
Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in a Vertical
Tube Furnace at 750°C, shall be considered non-combustible
materials.
F. Combustible Materials
Materials made of or surfaced with wood, compressed
paper, plant fibers, plastics, or other materials that can ignite
and burn, whether flame proofed or not, or whether plastered
or unplastered shall be considered combustible materials.
