2.8 COMBUSTIONAIRSUPPLY
VENTILATION
AND
WARNING
Poisonous carbon monoxide gas hazard.
Comply with NFPA 31 (U.S.) and CSA B139 (Canada)
standards for the installation of Oil Burning
Equipment and applicable provisions of local building
codes to provide combustion and ventilation air.
Failure to provide adequate combustion and
ventilation air can result in death, bodily injury and/or
property damage.
Oil furnaces must have an adequate supply of combustion
air. It is common practice to assume that older homes
have sufficient infiltration to accommodate the combustion
air requirement for the furnace. However, home
improvements such as new windows, doors, and weather
stripping have drastically reduced the volume of air
infiltration into the home.
Refer to oil furnace installation codes relative to
combustion and ventilation air requirements. Consult
Section 2.2 in this manual, specifically for units installed in
an enclosed space.
Home air exhausters are common. Bathroom and kitchen
fans, power vented clothes dryers and water heaters all
tend to create a negative pressure condition in the home.
Should this occur the chimney becomes less and less
effective and can easily downdraft. In certain cases,
mechanically supplied air, by way of a blower, interlocked
with the unit, is necessary. It is the installer’s responsibility
to check that.
2.8.1 Contaminated Combustion Air
Installations in certain areas or types of structures will
increase the exposure to chemicals or halogens that may
harm the furnace. These conditions will require that only
outside air be used for combustion.
The following areas or types of structures may contain or
be exposed to certain substances, potentially requiring
outside air for combustion:
a. Commercial buildings;
b. Buildings with indoor pools;
c. Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas.
Exposure to the following substances:
a. Permanent wave chemicals for hair;
b. Chlorinated waxes and cleaners;
c. Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals;
d. Water softening chemicals;
e. De-icing salts or chemicals;
f. Carbon tetrachloride;
