How does it work in 5300 ft elevation

I have had the Kozy World KWN195 for 15 months and it works great. I like in Highland, Utah which is about 4400 feet elevation. I did not have to make any modifications to the furnace.Love it,

The box tells you it may not work over 5000 feet but 5300 is not a lot over that number and they are saying "may not" not "will not". I cannot answer the question, however, because my home is at sea level. I am very happy with the heater which I have had since January of last year and used last winter and it was very cost efficient and provided excellent heat. I have just turned it on for this heating season.

I am not sure, but if you go to the company website you can download and read the instruction manual

I haven't had any problems at our property which has an elevation difference of about 10 ft. over an area of 1 1/4 acres. I use two transmitters, one in the barn and one in the house. The transmitter in the house is about 6 ft higher than the one in the barn. System works great even with my truck parked in the barn.

My unit is mounted on the top of my Everest 5th wheel. It is positioned of the roof so it can be operated from the front room by the TV. There is a cabinet nearby so the degree finder can be mounted without being seen on an interior wall. I had to use two beveled gaskets to make sure the unit is level. Requires drilling holes, running cables, etc. This unit will deliver a signal to two receivers although I only use it for one. Works well for me and is much less expensive than the automatic units.

Yes, it is very misleading. Radio frequencies work best on line of sight, so as long as there is nothing blocking such as buildings or high hills, 30 miles is quite possible if you have the elevation and no interference from buildings or other obstructions. Buyer beware.Regards Brian

I live at 6500' elevation and install tankless here. The T-K4-IN-LP will work at that elevation.

Not above 4000 feet it doesn't... I read that in someones review but it is not noted in the instructions that come with the unit.

I've used it at over 300 feet. The distance is impressive. It works smoothly even at that distance.

I don't know how it will work at higher elevations (I'm in Northeast PA), I went to a outdoor store & they showed me how to attach it to a fuel can. I grew up in CO, I don't think it will be any different. I went to a small business, I don't trust big stores. Good Luck!

This summer we were camping at 8.500 feet elevation. I had installed a wave 6 heater in our 5th wheel trailer and it worked fine. We did not experience any problems with the heater. Obviously the higher the elevation, the less oxygen thus I am sure in some way the heater could be affected. I would think that would be true for "any" heater! Good luck with your heater, they are worth the money spent in my option.

No. It is definitely off by a hundred feet or 200 with each reading. My coworker and I are both fire fighter who bought the watch for elevation while doing weather on fires and from our GPS readings the elevation is approx. 100-200 ft off each time.

Hi E.F.,I used this for a company I worked at last year and didn't really like it. For outside, it was pretty useless. The laser was too hard to hold steady, didn't like a large variety of surfaces, and was difficult to see at more than 20 feet. It worked great up inside attics but for the money, it was disappointing. I am not sure what the minimum was but I think I recall it would get funny around 2 feet or less. Sorry I can't be of more help. Kind Regards,Chad

We are up at about 6300 ft above sea level, and even so I can get the output temp up to 120 degrees, but be aware the flow is limited to 3.5 gpm, so I'm now sorry I did not get the next size up, but it works fine!

Thanks for all the answers. I have discovered from the manufacturer that this heater will not operate at altitudes above 4500 feet. I'm at 6500 feet. I'm surprised that this fact isn't emphasized in the product description. Looking for another heater.

I live on top of a 3000 ft hill in the Calif . range is depended on height of antenna, terrain, and the ground plane effect...its not all antenna.

I'm not sure Greg. The elevation has considerable adjustment range. However, I zeroed in at 50 yards and haven't touched it since.

I bought this machine for my mom (91 years old) who lives at 3000 feet elevation. She has better results from the bread flour. She does also add a few more teaspoons of water. The booklet mentions the elevation problem and water adjustments. Hope this helps.

You can call the rinnai factory tech and he can run you thu how to adjust for altitude but it would be better to have a licenced mech. who has the tools and the know how. I am licenced and put one in at 8400 ft but I did not have the gaugeto check it out. you need a dual manometer and the only person who has one is a specialist.
