Efficiency at different altitudes

in Oil Heating
I have basically a mobile diesel fired boiler system. My boiler is calibrated for use at 6000 ft elevation. I have a possible job at around 11000 ft elevation. I know this would effect my efficiency, but would I be hurting anything running it at that altitude? Thanks for the help.

calibration
The higher you go the less O2 there is . You unit if used in higher elevation would need to be re calibrated to be safe to use..There was an error rendering this rich post.
