AIR FOR COMBUSTION 

AND VENTILATION

Continued

If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum 

Btu/Hr the space can support,

 

the space is an uncon-

fined space. You will need no additional fresh air 

ventilation.

  WARNING:  If  the  area  in 

which the heater may be oper-

ated 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 Section 5.3

 

or applicable local codes.

VENTILATION AIR

Ventilation Air From Inside Building 

This fresh air would come from an adjoining un-

confined space. When ventilating to an adjoining 

unconfined space, you must provide two permanent 

openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one 

within 12" of the floor on the wall connecting the 

two spaces (see options 1 and 2, Figure 2). You 

can also remove door into adjoining room (see 

option 3, Figure 2). Follow the 

National Fuel Gas 

Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for 

Combustion and Ventilation

 for required size of 

ventilation grills or ducts.

Ventilation Air From Outdoors

Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or 

ducts. You must provide two permanent openings: 

one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" 

of the floor. Connect these items directly to the 

outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These 

spaces include attics and crawl spaces. Follow the 

National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, 

Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation

 for 

required size of ventilation grills or ducts. 

IMPORTANT:

 Do not provide openings for inlet 

or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermostat-

controlled power vent. Heated air entering the attic 

will activate the power vent.
