Mechanical Room
During the early stages of new home design, we recommend that proper
consideration be given to constructing a separate mechanical room dedicated to
gas- or oil-fired equipment including domestic hot water storage tanks.
The boiler must be located in a heated indoor space, near a floor drain, and as close
as possible to the vertical chimney or vent.
Whenever possible install boiler near an outside wall so that it is easy to duct fresh
air directly to the boiler area. In addition, do not use exhaust fans in the boiler room
and do not install the boiler in rooms with refrigeration equipment. This equipment
requires uncontaminated outside air for safe operation - do not install where
chemicals are stored or in a room with negative pressure. See section entitled
“Combustion Air Supply” for further details regarding the above.
Locate boiler on flooring capable of supporting the weight of the boiler filled with
water. Ensure that the boiler location does not interfere with the proper circulation
of combustion and ventilation air within the mechanical room.
The maximum room temperature of the mechanical room where the boiler is located
must not exceed 95°F / 35°C.
