FRESH AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

VENTILATION AIR

FROM INSIDE BUILDING
This fresh air would come from an adjoining
unconfined 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 6)

. You can also remove door

into adjoining room (see option 3, Figure 6).
Follow the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/
ANSI Z223.1, 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 perma-
nent 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, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, 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.
