21. STANDARD ORIFICE SIZING AND
HIGH ALTITUDE DERATE
This furnace is shipped with fixed gas orifices for use
with natural gas and sized for 1000 BTU/cubic foot
gas. Make sure actual gas input does not exceed rating
plate input. The orifices may need to changed to get
the correct gas input. Whether they need changed
or not depends on input and the gas heat value at
standard conditions and elevation. Consult the local
gas supplier for gas heat value and any special derating
requirements. See Section 20 for more information.
At higher altitudes, the density of the air is reduced.
Therefore, for proper combustion, the quantity of gas
burned in the furnace must also be reduced. This
is called derating. This unit must be derated when
installed at altitudes greater than 6,000' above sea
level. A high altitude pressure switch must also be
installed for operation above 6,000'. High Altitude
Pressure Switch Kit number 8620-189 is designed for
this application.

It is the installer’s responsibility to see that the
furnace input rate is adjusted properly. Derating
must be achieved by reducing the size of the main
burner orifices. Derating the furnace by adjusting the
manifold pressure lower than the range specified in
the Section 19, “Manifold Pressure Adjustment” is
considered to be an improper procedure.
Above 6,000' elevation orifice changes are required,
and capacity reductions are a function of altitude
impact and orifice change. Pressure switch change is
required above 6,000' elevation. For natural gas, see
Altitude Table 10 below and Orifice Tables 11A and
11B on following pages.
