AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.
Exhaust fans, fireboxes, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air form the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.
PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code. NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation:
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction; 2. Unconfined Space; 3. Confined Space.
The information on pages 8 through 10 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.
Unusually Tight Construction
The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in building of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional fresh air.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where: a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of one
perm (6 x 10-11 per pasec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed and
b. weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors and c. caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as 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, and at other openings.
If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 10.
Confined and Unconfined Space
The National Fuel Gas Code (ANSIZ223.1, 1992 Section 5.3) defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.
*Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.
DETERMINING AIR FLOW FOR FIREBOX LOCATION
Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space
Use the work sheet on the next page to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.
Space: Includes the room in which you will install firebox plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
WARNING
This firebox shall not be installed in a confined space unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.
8
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION Cont.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).
Length x Width x Height = ______________ cu. ft. (volume of space)
Example: Space size 22ft. (length) x 18 ft. (width)x8ft.(ceiling height) = 3168 cu. ft. (volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total
volume of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. ______________ (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = 63.3 or 63,300 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)
3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.
Vent-free firebox __________________ Btu/Hr
Gas water heater* __________________ Btu/Hr
Gas furnace __________________ Btu/Hr
Vented gas heater __________________ Btu/Hr
Gas firebox logs __________________ Btu/Hr
Other gas appliances* + __________________ Btu/Hr
Total = __________________ Btu/Hr
Example: Gas water heater 40,000 Btu/Hr
Vent-free firebox with log heater +
39,000 Btu/Hr
Total = 79,000Btu/Hr
* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the
outdoors.
4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.
__________________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)
__________________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)
Example: 63,300 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)
79,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)
The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more than the maximum Btu/Hr the
space can support. You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are a follows:
A. Rework work sheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides and unconfined space, remove
door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms, See Ventilation Air from Inside Building, page 9.
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See ventilation Air
from Outdoors, page 10.
C. Install a lower Btu/Hr firebox, if lower Btu/Hr size
makes room unconfined.
If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum Btu/Hr
the space can support, the space is an unconfined fined
space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.
WARNING
If the area in which the firebox and gas log heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined space, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, 1992, Section 5.3.
9
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION Cont.
VENTILATION AIR FROM INSIDE BUILDING
This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconfined space. When ventilating to an adjoining unconfined space, you must provide two permanent openings: one within 12” of the ceiling and one within 12” of the floor on the wall connecting the two spaces. You can also remove door into adjoining room. Follow the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA
54/ANSIZ223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.
FIGURE 5 - Ventilation Air from Inside Building
WARNING
Rework worksheet, adding the space of the adjoining unconfined space. The combined spaces must have enough fresh air to supply all appliances in both spaces.
