  • Page 14: Producing Adequate Ventilation

    PRODUCING ADEQUATE VENTILATION This section is for residential or manufactured (mobile) installation “This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless pro- visions are adequate combustion and ventilation air.” The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a...
  • Page 15 1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height). Length x Width x Height =_________cu.ft.(volume of space) EXAMPLE: 20 ft.(Length) x 16 ft.(Width) x 8 ft.(ceiling Height)= 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.
  • Page 16: Ventilation Air Indoors

    VENTILATION AIR FROM INSIDE BUILDING This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconfined space. When venting to an adjoining 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 5). You can also remove door into adjoining room.
  • Page 17: Ventilation Air Outdoors

    THIS HEATER MUST HAVE FRESH AIR FOR PROPER OPERATION. IF NOT, POOR FUEL COMBUSTION COULD RESULT. READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE PROPER FRESH AIR FOR THIS AND OTHER FUEL-BURNING APPLIANCES IN YOUR HOME. VENTILATION AIR FROM OUTDOORS Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You must provide two permanent openings: one within 12"...
