*Outside air openings shall directly communicate with the outdoors. When combustion air is drawn from the out side through a duct,
the net free area of each of the two openings must have twice (2 times) the free area required for Outside Air/2 Openings. The above
requirements are for the boiler only, additional gas fired appliances in the equipment room will require an increase in the net free area
to supply adequate combustion air for all appliances. Combustion air requirements are based on the latest edition of the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada refer to the latest edition of CAN/CGA B149. Check all local code re quire ments for combustion
air.
FIG. 7 Combustion Air from Interior Space

4. If a single combustion air open ing is provided to
bring combustion air in directly from the outdoors,
the opening must be sized based on a minimum
free area of one square inch per 3000 Btu (7 cm
per kW). This opening must be located within 12"
(30 cm) of the top of the enclosure.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should the mechanical room ever
be under a negative pressure. Particular care should be taken
where exhaust fans, attic fans, clothes dryers, compressors,
