Ifyou use a fireplaceor a kitchen or bathroom exhaust fan,
you should install an outside air intake. These deviceswill
rob the boiler and water heater of combustion air.
Sizing Air/Ventilation Openings
Air openings must be sized to handle allappliances and
air movers (exhaust fans,etc.) usingthe air supply.For
air openings into spaces containing other appliancesin
addition to the boiler referto the National Fuel GasCode,
ANSIZ223.1for sizing.
If No Other GasAppliances InThe Same Space
Provide air openings into the boiler space as described in this sec-
tion and the National Fuel GasCode, ANSI Z223.1.Direct exhaust
installations require airfor combustion and ventilation. Direct vent
installations may require airopenings for ventilation (to prevent
overheating of boiler controls and boiler space).
When Other GasAppliances Share the Same Space
For airopenings into spaces containing other appliances in addition
to the boiler refer to the National Fuel GasCode,ANSI Z223.1for
sizing.
