Can it work properly at an altitude of 4000-5000 meters?

I'm not sure the highest I been and used it it was about 900 ft, about 4120 meters.

Yes it functions well. I have been impressed every time I have used my viair450

I have no idea. 4000 meters is more than 13,000 feet and 5,000 is more than 16,000. I have used mine as high as 10,000 feet (3048 meters) many times and it works very well.

Depends on your area. I live in the mountains and it is not working all that well. Keep looking.

Overall a good product but certainly will not work the distance advertised. I didn't do any exact experiments but 500 ft would be my estimate for reliable performance

The manufacturer says the range is 50 to 60 meters but I have had longer distance flights ( altitude + distance ).

Katrina, I live about 1,500 feet above sea level (Southern California) so it works very well in my sunny area. I'm not sure how it would work as high as the Rockies, the manufacture should be able to help. Best of luck to you! Susan :)

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.

Unsure of the highest. I live at 7000' and have not had any problems. My understanding is the previous altitude issues with plasmas has all but been eliminated.

I have used it from approximately 90ft away without issue. You should be fine from 50 or 60ft.

That is a little far, this thing might not make it, you may need a higher powered AP with a separate high gain directional antenna. I've had it work well up to 200ft.

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.

I can't imagine that either but I've never tried it more than 30ft away. No issues with my experience out to 30' Good luck

I actually don't know. I had to get rid of mine because it broke when I was in Bolivia. I was on an airplane at the highest altitude in Bolivia and it stopped working after that. I used it for it's purpose but I was disappointed and so I threw it away. I'm sorry I can't help you.

well... the site boasts 9000M (29,000 ft) or till you freeze the battery... which ever comes first... but if you are weather ballooning, I think this will unfortunately stop or even break before you reach peak altitude....

If there is gps coverage it will work. Range depending on terrain and cloud coverage. Clear line of sight 2 miles dense undercover something under a mile.

I haven't flown with it personally... But we live at high altitudes and during the Pikes Peak Marathon, I have it at start at just over 6,000 feet and go up beyond 14,000 feet without problems and difficulty of the product being used. Really does work, BTW.

No. you will have to get the BUNN that is specific for high altitudes. I live at 7500ft and had the same problem. What we did was buy this one and call BUNN and make a exchange. Dont know if the high altitude one is available on Amazon. Once we made the high altitude switch it worked just fine.

Dear Sir,it range up to 3000 feet to 6000 feet depending on environment and terrain.Hope it helpful to you.
