WATER VAPOR: A BY-PRODUCT OF UNVENTED ROOM HEATERS
Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion.An unvented room heater productes approximately one (1) ounce (30ml) of wter for every 1,000 BTU’s (.3KW’s) of gas input per hour. Unvented room heaters are recommended as supplemental heat (a room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire house) .In most supplemental heat application, the water vapor does not create a problem. In most applications, the water vapor enhances the low humidity atmosphere experience during cold weather.
4
The following steps will help insure that water vapor does not become a problem.
1. Be sure the heater is sized properly for the application, including ample combustion air and circulation air.
2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be used to help lower the water vapor content of the air.
3. Do not use an unvented room heater as the primary heat source.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall
not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction 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.
PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code, NFP A 54/ ANSZ 223.1.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 5 through 6 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.
Confined and Unconfined Space
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1 defines a confined space as
a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per
3
hour (4.8 m
per kw) of the aggre­gate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfining space as a space whose volume is not 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.
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate com­bustion and ventilation air. * Adjoining rooms are communi­cating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.
Unusually Tight Construction
The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings 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 ( 6×10
-11
kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed and b) weather stripping has been added on windows that open 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 wall­ceiling 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 Venti- lation Air From Outdoors, page 6. If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to
Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Heater Location, below.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
DETERMINING FRESHAIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION
Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space
Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space. Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length Length Example: Space size 20ft. (length) 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.=(Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)
Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)
Width×Height= cu.ft. (volume of space)
×
16ft. ( width)×8ft. (ceiling height)=2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)

*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 : 51,200 Btu/Hr(maximum the space can support)
56,000 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 as follows: A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building (below). B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors (below) . C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, 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 space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.
WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined space or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANS Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.
Ventilation Air From lnside Building
12"
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 (see options 1 and 2, Figure 2).

Figure 2 -Ventilation Air from Inside Building
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You must provide two permanent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor. Connect these items directly to the outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These spaces include attics and crawl spaces. Follow the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1, Section 5.3. Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.
IMPORTANT:Do not provide openings for inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermostat­controlled power vent. Heated air entering the attic will activate the power vent.
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.
