Combustion and ventilation air requirements for conventionally vented appliances
Provisions for combustion and ventilation air must be in accordance with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada, the latest edition of CGA Standard B149 Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, or applicable provisions of the local building codes.
The room where the appliance is installed MUST be provided with properly sized openings to assure adequate combustion air and proper ventilation when the appliance is installed with conventional venting.
Figure 1-3_Combustion Air Direct from Outside
1. If air |
is |
taken |
directly from outside the building |
with |
no |
duct, |
provide two permanent openings |
(see FIG. 1-3): |
|
(a)Combustion air opening, with a minimum free area of one square inch per 4000 Btu/hr input (5.5 cm2 per kW). This opening must be located within 12" (30 cm) of the floor.
(b)Ventilation air opening, with a minimum free area of one square inch per 4000 Btu/hr input
(5.5 cm2 per kW). This opening must be located within 12" (30 cm) of the ceiling.
Figure 1-4_Combustion Air Through Ducts
2.If combustion and ventilation air is taken from the outdoors using a duct to deliver the air to the room where the appliance is installed, each of the two openings should be sized based on a minimum free area of one square inch per 2000 Btu/hr (11cm2 per kW) (see FIG. 1-4).
Figure 1-5_Combustion Air from Interior Space
3.If air is taken from another interior space that is adequately ventilated, each of the two openings specified above should have a net free area of one square inch for each 1000 Btu/ hr (22cm2 per kW) of input, but not less than 100 square inches (645cm2) (see FIG. 1-5).
11
1 Determine unit location
Figure 1-6_Combustion Air from Outside Single Opening
4.If a single combustion air opening 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/hr (7 cm2 per kW). This opening must be located within 12" (30 cm) of the top of the enclosure (see FIG. 1-6).
Combustion air requirements are based on the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada refer to National Standard CAN B149.1. Check all local code requirements for combustion air.
All dimensions are based on net free area in square inches. Metal louvers or screens reduce the free area of a combustion air opening a minimum of approximately 25%. Check with louver manufacturers for exact net free area of louvers. Where two openings are provided, one must be within 12" (30 cm) of the ceiling and one must be within 12" (30 cm) of the floor of the room where the appliance is installed. Each opening must have a net free area as specified in Table 1B (on page 13). Single openings shall be located within 12" (30 cm) of the ceiling.
Installation & Service Manual
CAUTION |
Under no circumstances should the room |
where the appliance is installed ever be |
|
|
under a negative pressure. Particular care |
|
should be taken where exhaust fans, attic |
|
fans, clothes dryers, compressors, air |
|
handling units, etc., may take away air from |
|
the appliance. |
The combustion air supply must be completely free of any flammable vapors that may ignite or chemical fumes which may be corrosive to the appliance. Common corrosive chemical fumes which must be avoided are fluorocarbons and other halogenated compounds, most commonly present as refrigerants or solvents, such as freon, tricholorethylene, perchlorethylene, chlorine, etc. These chemicals, when burned, form acids which quickly attack the heat exchanger finned tubes, headers, flue collectors, and the vent system. The result is improper combustion and a non-warrantable, premature appliance failure.
The result is improper combustion and a non-warrantable, premature appliance failure.
EXHAUST FANS: Any fan or equipment which exhausts air from the equipment room may deplete the combustion air supply and/or cause a downdraft in the venting system. Spillage of flue products from the venting system into an occupied living space can cause a very hazardous condition that must be immediately corrected. If a fan is used to supply combustion air to the equipment room, the installer must make sure that it does not cause drafts which could lead to nuisance operational problems with the appliance.

The distance of the vent terminal from adjacent buildings, windows that open and building openings MUST comply with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada, the latest edition of CGA Standard B149 Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment.
Vent connection is made directly to the top of the appliance. This appliance is designed with a built-in draft diverter. No additional external draft hood is required. The connection from the appliance vent to the common vent or chimney must be made as direct as possible.
A Conventional Negative Draft
Venting System
The negative draft in a conventional vent installation must be within the range of a negative 0.02 to 0.05 inches water column to ensure proper operation. All draft readings are made while the appliance is in stable operation (approximately 2 to 5 minutes).
Multiple appliance installations with combined venting or common venting with other negative draft appliances require that each appliance must have draft within the proper range. If the draft measured above the appliance’s built-in draft diverter exceeds the specified range in a dedicated chimney for a single appliance installation or in combined venting with other negative draft appliances, a barometric damper must be
installed to control draft.

Masonry Chimney Installation
A masonry chimney must be properly sized for the installation of a gas fired appliance. Venting of an appliance into a cold or oversized masonry chimney can result in operational and safety problems. Exterior masonry chimneys, with one or more sides exposed to cold outdoor temperatures, are more likely to have venting problems. The temperature of the flue gases from an appliance may not be able to sufficiently heat the masonry structure of the chimney to generate proper draft. This will result in condensing of flue gases, damage the masonry flue/tile, insufficient draft and possible spillage of flue gases into an occupied living space. Carefully inspect all chimney systems before installation. If there is any doubt about the sizing or condition of a masonry chimney, it must be relined with a properly sized and approved chimney liner system.
Inspection of a Masonry Chimney
A masonry chimney must be carefully inspected to determine its suitability for the venting of flue gases. A clay tile lined chimney must be structurally sound, straight and free of misaligned tile, gaps between liner sections, missing sections of liner or any signs of condensate drainage at the breaching or clean out. If there is any doubt about the condition of a masonry chimney, it must be relined. An unlined masonry chimney must not be used to vent flue gases from this appliance. An unlined chimney must be relined with an approved chimney liner system when a new appliance is being attached to it. Metallic liner systems (Type “B” double wall or flexible or rigid metallic liners) are recommended. Consult with local code officials to determine code requirements or the advisability of using or relining a masonry chimney.
Sidewall Venting
This appliance is NOT approved for sidewall venting with the negative draft venting system as shipped from the factory. An induced draft fan MUST be used if the installation requires that the flue gases be vented out a sidewall. A properly sized and installed induced draft fan may also be used to vent the flue gases vertically if required by job site conditions. The induced draft fan must be listed by a nationally recognized test agency, be properly sized and installed per the recommendations of the induced draft fan manufacturer and meet local code requirements. Use care to ensure that the mechanically supplied draft does not exceed the range of a negative 0.02 to 0.05 inches water column to ensure proper operation. If draft exceeds the specified range, the fan must be adjusted or the installation of a barometric damper in the flue may be required to properly control draft.
Installation & Service Manual
An induced draft fan MUST be interlocked into the appliance’s control circuit to start when the appliance calls for heat. The induced draft fan MUST also be equipped with a proving switch, properly interlocked into the appliance’s control circuit to prove fan operation before the main burners are allowed to fire. A vertical or sidewall vent termination for an induced draft fan MUST be installed per the recommendations of the fan manufacturer and provide proper clearances from any combustion or ventilation openings, windows, doors or other openings into the building. All induced draft fan installations must comply with local code requirements. See FIG. 2-7 for minimum sidewall venting clearances.

Automatic Vent Damper
This heating boiler is design certified for use with the automatic vent damper (FIG. 2-8) part number printed on the boiler’s rating plate. A vent damper is optional on heating boilers above 360,000 Btu/hr. Automatic vent dampers are not required or furnished on potable water heaters. Water heaters with inputs of 360,000 Btu/hr and less may be ordered with the vent damper as an option. A vent damper is a useful tool for saving energy when installed inside the living space where air can circulate freely around the appliance. The vent damper will not save as much, if any, energy if it is installed in locations such as:
-Unheated garage
-Attic
-Crawlspace
-Mechanical room that is vented outdoors
For installation and maintenance on the vent damper, refer to the instructions supplied with the vent damper.
Larger input heating boilers and water heaters will have a jumper plug installed in the terminal block to allow operation without a damper. Remove the jumper plug from the terminal block to connect an optional vent damper wire harness (water heater shown in FIG. 2-9). The jumper plug MUST be in place if an optional vent damper is not used on water heaters and larger input heating boilers.
WARNING
DANGER
Do not install the vent damper within 6" (152 mm) of combustible materials.
Install the vent damper to service only the single appliance for which it is intended. If improperly installed, a hazardous condition such as an explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning could result.
The damper position indicator must be in a visible location with access for service following installation. The damper must be in an open position when appliance main burners are operating.
The part number for the automatic vent damper required on this heating boiler is printed on the rating plate. Vent damper regulations are design certified per the latest edition of ANSI Z21.66.

2.Use new, properly threaded black iron pipe free from chips. If tubing is used, make sure the ends are cut squared, deburred and clean. All tubing bends must be smooth and without deformation. Avoid flexible gas connections. Internal diameter of flexible lines may not provide proper volume of gas.
3.Run pipe or tubing to the gas valve or manifold inlet. If tubing is used, obtain a tube to pipe coupling to connect the tubing to the gas valve or manifold inlet.
4.DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Over tightening may result in damage to the gas valves. Valve distortion or malfunction may result if the pipe is inserted too deeply into the gas valve.
Figure 3-1_Gas Line Connection
All gas connections must be made with pipe joint compound resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum and natural gas. All piping must comply with local codes. Tubing installations must comply with approved standards and practices. Reference FIG. 3-1 for a typical installation.
Install Piping to Control
1.The gas line should be a separate line direct from the meter unless the existing gas line is of sufficient capacity. Verify pipe size with your gas supplier.
5.Apply a moderate amount of good quality pipe compound (DO NOT use Teflon tape) to pipe only, leaving two end threads bare.
6.Remove seal over gas valve or manifold inlet.
7.Connect pipe to gas valve or manifold inlet. Use wrench to square ends of the gas valve (FIG. 3-2).
8.For L.P. gas, consult your L.P. gas supplier for expert installation.
