If the following is applied to either equation:
• Iother = combined input of all other than fan-assisted appliances in
Btuh/hr
• Ifan = combined input of all fan-assisted appliances in Btuh/hr
• ACH = air changes per hour (ACH shall not exceed 0.60.)
The following requirements apply to the Standard Method and to the
Known Air Infiltration Rate Method.
1. Adjoining rooms can be considered part of a space if:

unusually tight construction, additional air MUST be provided
using the methods described in the Outdoor Combustion Air
Method section.
4. Unusually tight construction is defined as construction with:
a.Walls and ceilings exposed to the outdoors have a continuous,
sealed vapor barrier. Openings are gasketed or sealed and
b.Doors and openable windows are weatherstripped and
c.Other openings are caulked or sealed. These include joints
around window and door frames, between sole plates and
floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at
penetrations for plumbing, electrical and gas lines, etc.
Combination of Indoor and Outdoor Air
1. Indoor openings shall comply with the Indoor Combustion Air
Method below and,
2. Outdoor openings shall be located as required in the Outdoor
Combustion Air Method mentioned previously and,
3. Outdoor openings shall be sized as follows:
a.Calculate the Ratio of all Indoor Space volume divided by
required volume for Indoor Combustion Air Method below.
b.Outdoor opening size reduction Factor is 1 minus the Ratio in
a. above.
c.Minimum size of Outdoor openings shall be the size required
in Outdoor Combustion Air Method above multiplied by
reduction Factor in b. above. The minimum dimension of air
