At what elevation can this be used? Did I read somewhere that this is good for up to 12,000 ft.?

Camping World's website indicates "Safe for operation at altitudes up to 12,000 feet". I have used mine at over 7,000 feet altitude. Very satisfied with the performance of our Wave 6 Heater.

I have used this heater at approximately 8,000 feet. You should ask the manufacture of the elevation limits.

My wave 8 works really good at 8500 feet but in the owners manual say it will run up to 12000 feet.

Depends on how far the building is and obstacles in the way. I guess upto 200 ft. without major obstacles like hills or very thick walls etc. could be a safe bet. I have tried upto 150 ft. without problem.

Changing the orifice will do nothing for high altitude. I have a house at 8500 feet, and can not use any of the newer stly with th O2 sensors. They only function to 4000 ft, and 4500 feet will cause intermittent operation. I have used this type heaters for over 20 years and they work great at 750 feet in Ohio, and wanted one for my house in Colorado, but to no avail.

I can raise it well above 10 feet. My sticker is not accurate, but I knew it would not be when I set mine up.

It would work well, but it may be a bit large. I'd consider mounting it close to the altitude axis to keep the balance good.

I have used mine up to 150 ft with no problem, I would highly recommend that you get the laser detector to go with it though. It gets hard to see the laser the farther you get but with the laser detector it is easy!

I live at 5580' elevation in New Mexico. It works fine here. No experience at 8k.

We are at 7000 feet and it works great. One of the best investments we have made. The installation manual gives the proper pressure settings for your elevation. Hope this is helpful.

Though I have not done it personally, according to the specs, it should work up to 300 or so feet.

I'm not exactly sure, but I've successfully been to 12ft and no problems. I love this product.

Yes, I live at an elevation of 5,280 ft. It works great for me...just brewed some iced tea up yesterday!

We have only really used it around the yard so not sure about the range, for height, we had it up over the telephone lines and it looked like it could have gone higher but at that point we were still learning are were just trying to figure out how to get it back on the ground without crashing it..

I found this youtube review, it's safer to use down to 50 feet, but these guys took it down to 130 feet and was still working. I would say to use caution, perhaps it's ok at 130 feet for a few seconds. If you want something for diving, it's always advisable to buy something that has a specific waterproof housing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN7LQvCZm8M

They have a special coffee maker for high altitudes. This model shpuld work for 4,000 or more feet above sea level : http://www.amazon.com/BXBD-Velocity-Altitude-10-Cup-Brewer/dp/B000G9WK8K/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8

The paperwork mine came with said "do not install on ceilings higher than 12 ft (3.7m)". I have it on my 14 ft garage ceiling and it has been working great for me.

I think the specs on it says it will raise 12.9 inches. It is listed under "more product details"

I had mine at about 650 ft and it worked really good. I would suspect it would work at 800 if you had a clear view
