2.4 Combustion and Ventilation
Air Supply
All indoor installations must have openings to
outside air for combustion, ventilation and dilution of
flue gases from inside the building (see Figure 20 and
Table 2 ). Laars does not recommend indoor
installations that do not provide combustion air from
outside the building.
In the United States, the most common
requirements specify that the space (enclosure) shall
communicate with the outdoors in accordance with
method 1 or 2, which follow. Where ducts are used,
they shall be of the same cross-sectional area as the
free area of the openings to which they connect.
Method 1:
Two permanent openings, one commencing
within 12" (30 cm) of the top and one commencing
within 12" (30 cm) of the bottom of the enclosure shall
be provided. The openings shall communicate
directly, or by ducts, with the outdoors or spaces that
freely communicate with the outdoors. When directly
communicating with the outdoors, or through vertical
ducts, each opening shall have a minimum free area of
1 square inch per 4000 Btu/hr (550 square mm/kW) of
total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure.
