If you install this heater in a confined area, you must provide additional fresh air.

 

Ventilating Confined Area

 

This fresh air would come from an adjoining open area or outdoors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WARNING ICONG 001WARNING

 

 

 

The adjoining open area must have enough fresh,

 

 

 

outside air ventilation to supply any appliance in that

 

 

 

area plus the confined area. Follow instructions under

 

 

 

Example 1: Locating Heater in Unconfined (Open) Area,

 

 

 

page 18 to make sure fresh air ventilation is adequate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When ventilating to an adjoining open area, you must provide two permanent

 

openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor on the wall

 

connecting the two areas. Follow the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI

 

Z223.1. It lists fresh-air requirements for fuel-burning appliances.

After providing ventilation between rooms, check for draft hood spillage (see Draft

 

Hood Spillage Test, page 18). If draft hood spillage still occurs, provide more

 

ventilation between rooms or provide permanent ventilation from outdoors. See
