I'm looking to use a tankless propane portable water heater at 7500 feet altitude. The heaters I look at online say they're "not recommended" at high altitude (some say above 2000 feet, some say 5000). As I understand it, there's not enough air for the propane burner to run well and heat the water up enough at high altitude.
I was wondering if it might be possible to make some kind of air induction system with a blower to give it enough air. Has anyone tried something like this?
