If air is taken from another interior space, each of the
two openings specified above should have a net free
area of one square inch for each 1000 Btu/hr (22 cm

*Outside air openings shall directly communicate with the outdoors. When combustion air is drawn from the outside 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.
