SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY
7.1 Room Sealed Installation
When installed as a room sealed heater, the air for 
combustion is drawn in from outside the building. It 
is important to ensure that there is adequate 
ventilation to provide air for the distribution fan/s.
7.2 Open Flued Installation
Ensure adequate air supply at all times for both 
combustion and heating requirements in 
accordance with local and national codes. The air 
supply to the heater must be fitted with a low 
resistance terminal to prevent the ingress of debris. 
See Page 12, Figure 7

than 4.7 m
3
 per kilowatt of total rated heat input and 
the air change rate is at least 0.5/h, additional high 
and low level ventilation will not be required.
For a building having an air change rate less than 
0.5/h, ventilation will be necessary in accordance 
with local and national codes. Ventilation direct to 
outside must be provided as follows:
• Heaters above 70 kW heat input = 350 cm
2
 + 
2.5 cm
2
 per kW of rated heat input above 70 kW
7.3 Building Ventilation
Where ventilation is required, air must be taken from 
an outside point where it is not likely to be 
contaminated or obstructed.
Where natural ventilation is used, suitable ventilation 
with outside air at low level must be provided in 
accordance with Section 7.2.1 and local and national 
codes.
Where mechanical ventilation is used, extract rate
must be 5% - 10% less than the inlet rate. The
mechanical ventilation must be interlocked with the
burner on the heater.
7.4 Isolated Equipment Rooms
Ventilation must prevent the isolated equipment 
room temperature from exceeding 32°C as well as 
prevent any negative air pressure within the room. 
See Page 13, Figure 9
. Any isolated equipment 
room containing air heaters will require permanent 
air vents direct to outside air in compliance with local 
codes.
Where natural ventilation is used, suitable 
permanent openings at low and high level, 
communicating directly with the outside air, must be 
provided.
Where mechanical ventilation is used, extract rate 
must be 5% - 10% less than the inlet rate. The 
mechanical ventilation must be interlocked with the 
burner on the heater.
