AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

 WARNING: This heater shall 

not be installed in a confined space 

or  unusually  tight  construction 

unless  provisions  are  provided 

for  adequate  combustion  and 

ventilation air. Read the following 

instructions to insure proper fresh 

air for this and other fuel-burning 

appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy efficient 

than ever. New materials, increased insulation 

and new construction methods help reduce 

heat loss in homes. Home owners weather 

strip  and  caulk  around  windows  and  doors 

to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. 

During heating months, home owners want 

their homes as airtight as possible.

While it is good to make your home energy 

efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh 

air must enter your home. All fuel-burning ap-

pliances need fresh air for proper combustion 

and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers and 

fuel burning appliances draw air from the house 

to operate. You must provide adequate fresh 

air for these appliances. This will insure proper 

venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

 WARNING: This heater shall 

not  be  installed  in  a  room  or 

space unless the required vol-

ume  of  indoor  combustion  air 

is provided by the method de-

scribed in the National Fuel Gas 

Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the 

International Fuel Gas Code, or 

applicable local codes.

 WARNING: If the area in which 

the heater  may be operated is 

smaller  than  that  defined  as 

an  unconfined  space  or  if  the 

building  is  of  unusually  tight 

construction, provide adequate 

combustion and ventilation air 

by one of the methods described 

in the National Fuel Gas Code, 

ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the In-

ternational Fuel Gas Code, or 

applicable local codes.
