FOR HIGH ALTITUDES
HIGH ALTITUDE KIT
—Required for all models at altitudes of 5,000
ft. and above. Use kit # RXGY-F13 for all -GPL models.
OPTION CODE FOR HIGH ALTITUDE:
U.S. & Canada – 278
NOTE:
High altitude kits and options do
NOT
include additional
burner orifices. If a burner orifice change is necessary, they
must be ordered through PROSTOCK
®
. See Installation
Instructions for more information.
Option – 278 furnaces are shipped with #51 DMS orifices installed.
This is one drill size smaller than standard furnaces to account for
expected average elevations and heating values typically seen in
these areas.
CAUTION:
Always follow National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) guidelines
when converting furnaces for high altitudes.
For all installations above 2000 ft. (including all option – 278
models), the burner orifice size needs to be recalculated and
verified. A burner orifice change may still be required. See
Installation Instructions for more information.
NOTE:
For Canadian installations only, an optional derate (manifold
gas pressure reduction) method may be used to adjust the
furnace for altitude. See Installation Instructions for more
information. This optional method may
NOT
be used for
U.S. installations.
