requirements depend on the clearances around
the boiler.

Figure 1a, page 7.
If all clearances are at least equal to Figure 1a,
page 7
given on pages 10 and 11.
If ANY clearance is less than Figure 1a, page 7
you must provide air openings sized and located as
shown in Figure 1b, page 7.
and location information shown on page 10 or 11.
Air openings must be provided
Combustion air and ventilation openings must comply the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-latest edition, or applicable local building codes.
Canadian installations must comply with B149.1 or B149.2 Installation
Codes.
Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to
assure proper combustion and reduce the risk of severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage
caused by flue gas spillage and carbon monoxide
emissions.

, sized and located per Figure 3, Figure 4 or Figure 5.
2. Buildings of typical construction should provide adequate combustion
air from natural infiltration, so additional air openings to the building
are not required.
3. See Figure 2. Provide two openings
12 inches of the ceiling and the floor, sized per Figure 2.
Two openings — Air supply directly from outside
1. Air openings must be directly through an outside wall, or into a space
that connects directly to the outside (such as a ventilated attic or crawl
space, for example).
