combustible building
materials and connected
to an approved type "B"
vent. This kit (complete
with full installation
details) is available from
your dealer.
iii.

sidewall vent through any approved 4" dia. vent
to a remote fan/hood up to 75 feet from the
appliance.
All installations must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1 or the Canadian Installation Code CAN/CGA-149.

HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS

This appliance has been tested for installation at high altitude
to CAN/CGA 2.17-M91. This standard simulates operation up
to 4500ft.
Natural Gas appliances comply with this standard without
deration of normal rated input.
Propane appliances require a 10% deration over 2000ft.
In Canada, installations above 4500ft. will require approval
of the authority having jurisdiction.
In the USA, the National Fuel Utilization Code specifies that
appliances installed at over 2000ft. altitude shall be derated by
4% per 1000ft. altitude. However, these appliances have been
specifically field-tested for high altitude performance.
Therefore, deration of Natural Gas appliances is not necessary
or recommended for installations up to 7000ft. For Propane
appliances a total deration of 10% for all altitudes above
2000ft. and up to 7000ft. is required. Above 7000ft. derate
Natural gas appliances by 4% for each 1000ft. above 7000ft.
Derate Propane appliances by 4% for each 1000ft. above
7000ft. plus 10%.

at the front of the appliance are shown in figure 2. These front
clearances apply to all installations – Whether in a solid fuel
fireplace, new zero clearance construction or free standing. If
it is intended to fit the appliance in a combustible recess, the
Zero Clearance Kit #700ZCK (available from your dealer)
must be used as shown in figure 4.
