AIR FOR COMBUSTION

AND VENTILATION

Continued

PROVIDING ADEQUATE

VENTILATION

The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation.

All spaces in homes fall into one of the three fol- lowing ventilation classifications:

1.Unusually Tight Construction

2.Unconfined Space

3.Confined Space

The information on pages 6 through 8 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional fresh air.

Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:

a.walls and ceilings exposed to the out- side atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6 x 10-11kg 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, and gas lines, and at other openings.

If your home meets all of these three criteria, you must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 8.

If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Fireplace Location.

Confined and Unconfined Space

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input

rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms com- municating directly with the space in which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.

*Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR FIREPLACE LOCATION

Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space

Use this work sheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.

Space: Includes the room in which you will install fireplace plus any adjoining rooms with doorless pas- sageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.

1.Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).

Length x Width x Height =__________cu. ft. (volume of space)

Example: Space size 16 ft. (length) x 14 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 1792 cu. ft. (volume of space)

If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.

2.Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

__________ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

Example: 1792 cu. ft. (volume of space) x 20 = 35,840 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

3.Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.

CDCFNR specifications

Desa CDCFNR, or the Community Development and Capacity Building Framework for Natural Resources, is a pioneering initiative designed to empower local communities in managing their natural resources sustainably. This comprehensive framework is particularly focused on fostering resilience and enhancing the socio-economic conditions of communities that depend on these resources.

One of the main features of Desa CDCFNR is its emphasis on community participation. The framework encourages active engagement of community members in decision-making processes, which ensures that the management of natural resources reflects the needs and aspirations of local populations. By involving communities, the framework promotes a sense of ownership, responsibility, and accountability towards natural resource management.

Technologically, Desa CDCFNR leverages various innovative tools and platforms to facilitate data collection, sharing, and analysis. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are utilized to map natural resources and analyze spatial patterns, which aids in effective planning and resource allocation. Mobile applications are also employed to engage community members, allowing them to report changes in resource availability or environmental conditions in real time. This use of technology ensures that data-driven decisions can be made promptly, leading to more adaptive management strategies.

Another notable characteristic of Desa CDCFNR is its integrated approach. It does not view natural resource management in isolation; instead, it recognizes the interplay between social, economic, and environmental factors. This holistic perspective ensures that interventions are designed to address multiple dimensions of sustainability, including economic development, environmental conservation, and social equity.

Capacity building is at the heart of the Desa CDCFNR initiative. Training programs and workshops are organized to enhance the skills of community members in areas such as sustainable farming practices, water management techniques, and biodiversity conservation. By building local capacities, the framework aims to equip communities with the necessary tools and knowledge to manage their resources effectively and adapt to changing environmental conditions.

In summary, Desa CDCFNR focuses on community engagement, harnesses technology for better resource management, adopts an integrated approach to sustainability, and emphasizes capacity building. Together, these features position Desa CDCFNR as a transformative framework in the realm of community-led natural resource management, paving the way for sustainable development and resilience in local communities.
