NOTE: Use any of the following

→ Fig. 7—Air for Combustion, Ventilation and
Dilution for Outdoors
The Standard Method:
1. The space has no less volume than 50 cubic feet per 1,000
Btuh of the maximum input ratings for all gas appliances
installed in the space and
2. The air infiltration rate is not known to be less than 0.40 air
changes per hour (ACH).
The Known Air Infiltration Rate Method shall be used, if the
infiltration rate is known to be:
1. Less than 0.40 ACH and
2. Equal to or greater than 0.10 ACH
Infiltration rates greater than 0.60 ACH shall not be used. The
minimum required volume of the space varies with the number of
ACH and shall be determined per Table 3 or Equations 1 and 2.
Determine the minimum required volume for each appliance in the
space and add the volumes together to get the total minimum
required volume for the space.
Table 3-Minimum Space Volumes were determined by using the
following equations from the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1-2002/NFPA 54-2002,8.3.2.2:

The following requirements apply to the Standard Method and to

a. There are no closable doors between rooms.
b. Combining spaces on same floor level. Each opening shall
have free area of at least 1 in.

second opening shall commence within 12" (300 mm) of
the floor. The minimum dimension of air openings shall be
at least 3 in. (80 mm). (See Fig. 8.)
