VENTILATION AIR
Ventilation Air From Inside Building

This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconfined space. When ventilating to an adjoining uncon-
fined 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 NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation
for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.

WARNING

Rework worksheet, adding the space of the adjoining unconfined space. The combined
spaces must have enough fresh air to supply all appliances in both spaces.

Figure 2 - Ventilation Air from Inside Building

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.

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.
