AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
VENTILATION AIR
Ventilation Air From Inside Building
This fresh air would come from an adjoining
unconfined space. When ventilating to an
adjoining unconfined 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 4). You can also remove door into
adjoining room (see option 3, Figure 3). Follow
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation for
required size of ventilation grills or ducts.

Ventilation Air From Outdoors
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation
grills or ducts. You must provide two perma-
nent 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. Follow the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation for required size
of ventilation grills or ducts.
IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for
inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermo-
stat-controlled power vent. Heated air entering
the attic will activate the power vent.

CAUTION: Log heaters
installed in this firebox create
warm air currents. These cur-
rents move heat to wall surfaces
next to firebox. Installing firebox
next to vinyl or cloth wall cover-
ings or operating firebox where
impurities (such as, but not
limited to, tobacco smoke, aro-
matic candles, cleaning fluids,
oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in
the air exist, may discolor walls
or cause odors.
