Provisions for combustion and ventilation air must be
made in accordance with section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, or applicable provisions of the local
codes. In Canada follow CAN/CGA-B149.1 or .2
Installation Codes. Always use latest edition of codes.
The following guideline is taken from the
CAN/CGA-B149 Code:
Combustion air supply shall have a cross sectional area
of not less than 100 in
in excess of 400,000 Btu/h. This opening(s) shall be
either located at, or ducted to, a point neither more than
18 inches nor less than 6 inches above the floor level.
In addition to the combustion air supply, a ventilation air
supply connection shall be made at the highest practical
point communicating with outdoors with a minimum
area of 10% of the combustion supply opening area.
ATTENTION
The boiler must not be located in areas or rooms where
chemicals are stored, or aggressive vapors (for
example: bleach, hair spray, methyl chloride, carbon
tetrachloride or perchloroethylene) or high dust levels or
humidity levels are present. Heat exchanger corrosion
might occur and reduce the lifetime of the boiler
significantly. If above criteria are not properly observed
and boiler damage results, any warranty on the
complete boiler and related components will be null and
void.
