Air from Outside
If air from outside is brought in for combustion and ventila-
tion, the confined space shall be provided with two
permanent openings. One opening shall be within 12"
(305mm) of the top of the enclosure and one within 12"
(305mm) of the bottom. These openings must communi-
cate directly or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl
or attic) that freely communicate with the outdoors or indi-
rectly through vertical ducts. Each opening shall have a
minimum free area of 1 square inch per 4,000 Btu
(645mm
2
per 1.17kW) per hour of total input rating of all
equipment in the enclosure. When communicating with
the outdoors through horizontal ducts, each opening shall
have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 2,000 Btu
(645mm
2
per .59kW) per total input rating of all equipment
in the enclosure (See figure 4).

If air from outside is brought in for combustion and ventila-
tion, the confined space must have two permanent open-
ings. One opening shall be within 12 inches (305 mm) of
the top of the enclosure and one opening within 12 inches
(305 mm) of the bottom. These openings must communi-
cate directly or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl
or attic) that freely communicate with the outdoors or indi-
rectly through vertical ducts. Each opening shall have a
minimum free area of 1 square inch (645 mm
2
) per 4,000
Btu (1.17 kW) per hour of total input rating of all equipment
in the enclosure. See figures 4 and 5. When communicat-
ing with the outdoors through horizontal ducts, each open-
ing shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch (645
mm
2
) per 2,000 Btu (.56 kW) per total input rating of all
equipment in the enclosure. See figure 6.
When ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross−sec-
tional area as the free area of the openings to which they
connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts
shall be no less than 3 inches (75 mm). In calculating free
area, the blocking effect of louvers, grilles, or screens
must be considered. If the design and free area of protec-
tive covering is not known for calculating the size opening
required, it may be assumed that wood louvers will have
20 to 25 percent free area and metal louvers and grilles
will have 60 to 75 percent free area. Louvers and grilles
must be fixed in the open position or interlocked with the
equipment so that they are opened automatically during
equipment operation.
