Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic and automated control of a heating appliance based on atmospheric pressure conditions are provided. Particularly, a controller of the heating appliance may be configured to automatically adjust the amount of gas and/or air provided to the combustion chamber of the heating appliance based on changes in atmospheric pressure in the environment of the heating appliance. Changes in atmospheric pressure may impact the combustion process within the heating appliance, which may lead to inefficiencies in the operation of the heating appliance if the rate at which gas and/or air is provided remain constant during pressure changes. To mitigate these impacts, a barometric pressure sensor may be used to measure the atmospheric pressure at any given time and may provide this data to the controller. The controller may then adjust the rate at which gas and/or air is provided within the heating appliance to reduce such inefficiencies.
