Provide adequate facilities for combustion and
ventilation air in accordance with Section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, .National Fuel Gas
Code, or applicable provisions of the local building
code. Subsections 2 through 6 below are based on
National Fuel Gas Code requirements.
Definitions:
Unconfined Space: a space whose volume is not
less than fifty (50) cubic feet per 1000 Btu!hr of the
total 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
part of the unconfined space.
Unusually Tight Construction: Construction
where:
a. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside
atmosphere have a continuous water vapor
retarder with a rating of 1 perm or less with
openings gasketed or sealed, and
b. Weatherstripping has been added on openable
windows and doors, and
e. Caulking or sealants are supplied to areas such
as joints around window and door frames,
between sole plates and floors, between wall-
ceiling joints, between wall panels, at
penetrations for plumbing, electrical and gas
lines, and at other openings.
3. Appliances Located in Unconfined Spaces:
For installations in unconfined spaces with other
than unusually tight construction, the supply of air
for combustion and ventilation can usually be
considered adequate.
