OUTSIDE COMBUSTION AIR PRECAUTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
Outside Combustion Air Recommendations
(continued)
1. Extremely long runs and numerous turns in the duct leading from the fireplace to the combustion
air assembly should be avoided. These conditions will increase the resistance to the free flow of
air through the duct. Refer to Figures 1, 21, and 22 for methods of installing the outside air for
combustion assemblies.
2. The combustion air assembly should be located at an exterior location, which is not likely to be ac-
cidentally blocked in any manner. The assembly should be located above the snow line to prevent
blockage by snow accumulation.
3. The combustion air inlet assembly should never be mounted in a garage or storage area where
combustible fumes such as gasoline might be drawn into the fireplace.
4. Combustion air can be drawn form the crawl space under a house when an adequate supply of air
is provided by open ventilation.
5. Do not take combustion air from attic space or garage space.
