6 - COMBUSTION AIR AND VENTILATION
Provide combustion air and ventilation air in accordance
with the section “Air for Combustion and Ventilation,” of the 
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or Sections 
8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 of Natural Gas and Propane Installation 
Code, CAN/CSA B149.1, or applicable provisions of local 
building codes.
Provide make-up air where exhaust fans, clothes dryers,
and kitchen ventilation equipment interfere with proper
operation.
National Fuel Gas Code recognizes several methods 
of obtaining adequate ventilation and combustion air. 
Requirements of the authority having jurisdiction may
override these methods.
• Engineered Installations. Must be approved by 
authority having jurisdictions.
• Mechanical Air Supply. Provide minimum of 0.35 
cfm per Mbh for all appliances located within space. 
Additional requirements where exhaust fans installed. 
Interlock each appliance to mechanical air supply 
system to prevent main burner operation when 
mechanical air supply system not operating.
• All Indoor Air. Calculate minimum volume for all 
appliances in space. Use a different method if minimum 
volume not available.
◊ Standard Method. Cannot be used if known air 
infi ltration rate is less than 0.40 air changes per 
hour. See Table 4 for space with boiler only. Use 
equation for multiple appliances.
Volume ≥ 50 ft3 x Total Input [Mbh]
◊ Known Air Infi ltration Rate. See Table 3 for space 
with boiler only. Use equation for multiple appliances. 
Do not use an air infi ltration rate (ACH) greater than 
0.60.                                            
Volume ≥ 15 ft3/ACH x Total Input [Mbh]
◊ Refer to National Fuel Gas Code for opening 
requirements between connection indoor spaces.
• All Outdoor Air. Provide permanent opening(s) 
communicating directly or by ducts with outdoors.
◊ Two Permanent Opening Method. Provide opening 
commencing within 12 inches of top and second 
opening commencing within 12 inches of bottom 
enclosure.
 
 Direct communication with outdoors or 
communicating through vertical ducts. Provide 
minimum free area of 1 in 2 per 4 Mbh of total 
input rating of all appliances in enclosure.
 
 Communicating through horizontal ducts. Provide 
minimum free area of 1 in2 per 2 Mbh of total input 
rating of all appliances in enclosure.
◊ One Permanent Opening Method. Provide opening 
commencing within 12 inches of top of enclosure. 
Provide minimum clearance of 1 inch on sides 
and back and 6 inches on front of boiler (does not 
supersede clearance to combustible materials).
◊ Combination Indoor and Outdoor Air. Refer to 
National Fuel Gas Code for additional requirements 
for louvers, grilles, screens and air ducts.
• Combination Indoor and Outdoor Air. Refer toNational 
Fuel Gas Code for application information. National Gas 
and Propane Installation Code Requires providing air 
supply in accordance with:
• Section 8.2 and 8.3 when combination of applianceshas 
a total input of up to and including 400 Mbh (120kW).
 
 Does not have draft control device.
• Section 8.4 when combination of appliances has total 
input exceeding 400 Mbh (120 kW).
• Refer to Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code 
for specifi c air supply requirements for enclosure or 
structure where boiler is installed, including air supply 
openings and ducts.
