1. Ventilation of the boiler room must be adequate to provide sufficient air to properly
support combustion per the latest revision of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
section 5.3.
2. When a boiler is located in an unconfined space in a building or conventional construction
frame, masonry or metal building, infiltration normally is adequate to provide air for
combustion and ventilation. However, if the equipment is located in a building of unusually tight
construction (See the national Fuel Gas Code, Ansi Z223.1 section 1.7), the boiler area
should be considered as a confined space. In this case air for combustion and ventilation shall
be provided according to part 5 on page 5. If there is any doubt, install air supply provisions
in accordance with the latest revision of the National Fuel Gas Code.
