HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATION
Your  DESA  direct-vent  fireplace  has  been 
tested and approved for elevations from 0-2,000 
feet  (USA)  and  elevations  from  0-4,500  feet 
(Canada)
Fireplaces  for  High Altitude  (models  ending  in 
-HA) are  for  installation above  4,000  feet only. 
These replaces are equipped with parts specic 
for  higher  altitudes.  IMPORTANT:  These  re-
places can NOT be converted to propane/LP gas.
When installing a non-high altitude replace at an 
elevation above 2,000 feet (USA), you may need to 
decrease the input rating by changing the existing 
burner orice to a smaller size. Reduce input 4% 
for each 1,000 feet above sea level. Check with 
your  local  gas  company  for proper    orice  size 
identication. 
When  installing  this  fireplace  at  an  elevation 
above  4,500  feet  (Canada),  check  with  local 
authorities.
IMPORTANT:  For  horizontal  installations 
above 2,000 feet, it is recommened that a 12" 
extension pipe be added before starter elbow 
(see Figure 33).
