C. High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved with-
out requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in
the U.S.A. and 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 orifi ce 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., or 10% for el-
evations between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada. If the
heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules
do not apply. To identify the proper orifi ce size, check with
the local gas utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.
Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualifi ed service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system and
Orifi ce
any gas control which has been under water.
