Good to know:

• Above 2,000 ft Raypak calls for cutting the input 4% per 1,000 ft, so order the version built for your elevation.
• Optional Raypak kits for the 206A: outdoor stack 009834, indoor stack 009838, D-2 power vent 010744 (120 V) or 009832 (240 V).
• Raypak requires a sediment trap on the gas line, and the heater should sit at least 3 ft from a heat pump or outdoor condensing unit.
• The ProTek Shield is a wear part. Raypak says to replace it once it is down to about 40% of its original weight.
• Gas, venting and electrical work must be done by a qualified installer and meet local codes.
