the outside by one of two ways:
directly through horizontal ducts
indirectly through vertical ducts
When communicating directly with the outdoors through horizontal ducts,
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 in2/2000 Btu/hr (1100 mm2/
kW) of total input rating of all appliances in the confined space.
Note: If ducts are used, the cross sectional area of the duct must be greater
than or equal to the required free area of the openings to which they are
connected.
