D.  High Altitude Installations
Intertek listed gas appliances are tested and approved 
without requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet

in Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 
feet (609m), 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 
(305m) above a 2000 foot (609m) 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 orifi ce size, check with 
the local gas utility.
