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. 114683-01B AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION Continued DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space Use this work sheet to determine if you have a con fined 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 x width x height). Length x Width x Height =__________cu. ft. (volume of space) Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2560 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. Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. _______ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support) Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) x 20 = 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support) 3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space. Vent-free heater ______________ Btu/Hr Gas water heater* ______________ Btu/Hr Gas furnace ______________ Btu/Hr Vented gas heater ______________ Btu/Hr Gas fireplace logs ______________ Btu/Hr Other gas appliances* + __________ Btu/Hr Total = __________ Btu/Hr * Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct- vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the outdoors. Example: 40,000 Gas water heater ______________ Btu/Hr 30,000 Vent-free heater + _____________ Btu/Hr 70,000 Total = _____________ Btu/Hr 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) 70,000 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, page 7. B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 7. 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 byoneofthemethodsdescribed in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSIZ223.1/NFPA54Section5.3 or applicable local codes. 114683-01B AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION Continued VENTILATION AIR 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 (see options 1 and 2, Figure 2). You can also remove door into adjoining room (see option 3, Figure 2). Follow the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts. Ventilation Air From Outdoors 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, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, 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 thermostat- controlled power vent. Heated air entering the attic will activate the power vent.
