Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are
certified without deration from elevations up to
4,500 feet (1,370 m) above sea level.
Nuisance outages may occur at altitudes above
4,500 feet (1,370 m) if dirt, dust, lint and/or cobwebs are allowed to accumulate on burner and/or
ODS pilot. Monthly inspection and cleaning is recommended for altitudes above 4,500 feet (1,370 m)
For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370 m), installations must be in accordance with the current
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes having
jurisdiction.
Valve Access
Valve access can be accomplished in one of two ways:
1. Remove the front panel just below the front of the
hearth pan. This is accomplished by lifting on the
panel. To replace the valve access panel line up the
two pins with the holes in the surround bottom and
push the panel over the front of the hearth pan. (Fig.
