HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATION
Your DESA B-vent burner system has been CSA tested and approved
for operation at altitudes in the USA from 0-2000 feet and in Canada
from 0-4500 feet.
When installing this burner system at an elevation above 2000 feet (in
the USA), you may need to decrease the input rating by changing the
existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Reduce input 4% for each
1000 feet above sea level. Check with your local gas company for
proper orifice size identification and proper orifice for your location.
When installing this stove and burner system at an elevation above
4500 feet (in Canada), check with local authorities.
For assistance with any high altitude installation contact DESA’s
Technical Service Department at 1-866-672-6040.
