ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space unless provisions are provided for adequate combus-
tion and ventilation air.
(a) Walls and ceiling exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarded
with a rating of 1 perm (6 x 10 kg per pa-sec-m²) or less with openings gasketed or sealed , and
(b) Weather stripping has been added on openable windows 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 wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations
for plumbing, electrical, gas lines, and at other openings.
The National Fuel Gas Code defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet
per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m³ per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space
and an unconfined space is defined as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU
per hour (4.8m³ 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 fur-
nished with doors, are considered a part of that unconfined space.
