Vent Location
An Exhaust Restrictor is built into the appliance to adjust the flow rate of exhaust gases. This
ensures proper combustion for all vent configurations. Depending upon the vent configuration, you
may be required to adjust the restrictor position. See “Exhaust Restrictor Settings” on page 20.

Altitude Considerations
This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet (1,800 M). In this
testing, we have found that the heater, with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter
adjustment.
Failure to adjust the air shutter properly may lead to improper combustion which can create a safety
hazard. Consult your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.
