NOT INTENDED FOR USE AS A PRIMARY HEAT SOURCE.  
This appliance is tested and approved as either supplemen-
tal room heat or as a decorative appliance.  It should not be 
factored as primary heat in residential heating calculations.

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.
