Page 9 BRUTE ELITE
Method 1: Two permanent openings, one commencing within
12” (300mm) of the top and one commencing within 12”
(300mm) of the bottom, of the enclosure shall be provided.
The openings shall communicate directly, or by ducts, with
the outdoors or spaces that freely communicate with the
outdoors. When directly communicating with the outdoors, or
when communicating to the outdoors through vertical ducts,
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch
per 4000 Btu/hr (550 square mm/kW) of total input rating
of all equipment in the enclosure. When communicating to
the outdoors through horizontal ducts, each opening shall
have a minimum free area of not less than 1 square inch per
2000 Btu/hr (1100 square mm/kW) of total input rating of all
equipment in the enclosure.
Method 2
: One permanent opening, commencing within
12” (300mm) of the top of the enclosure, shall be permitted.
The opening shall directly communicate with the outdoors
or shall communicate through a vertical or horizontal duct
to the outdoors or spaces that directly communicate with the
outdoors and shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch
per 3000 Btu/hr (734 square mm/kW) of the total input rating
of all equipment located in the enclosure. This opening must
not be less than the sum of the areas of all vent connectors in
the confined space.
Section 3 -
VENTING AND COMBUSTION AIR
3.1 Combustion Air
Brute Elite boilers and water heaters must have provisions
for combustion and ventilation air in accordance with the
applicable requirements for Combustion Air Supply and
Ventilation in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223 1; or in
Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA
B149.1. All applicable provisions of local building codes must
also be adhered to.
A Brute Elite unit can take combustion air from the space
in which it is installed, or the combustion air can be ducted
directly to the unit. Ventilation air must be provided in either
case.
Combustion Air From Room
In the United States, the most common requirements specify
that the space shall communicate with the outdoors in
accordance with method 1 or 2, which follow. Where ducts
are used, they shall be of the same cross-sectional area as the
free area of the openings to which they connect.
