EXAMPLES: Determining Free Area
FURNACE WATER HEATER TOTAL INPUT
110,000 + 30,000 = (140,000 divided by 4,000) = 35.0 Sq. In. for each two Vertical Ducts or Openings
66,000 + 40,000 = (106,000 divided by 3,000) = 35.3 Sq. In. for a Single Duct or Opening
88,000 + 30,000 = (118,000 divided by 2,000) = 59.0 Sq. In. for each of two Horizontal Ducts

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION
Provisions for adequate combustion, ventilation, and dilution air
must be provided in accordance with:
S U.S. Installations: Section 9.3 of the NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1--2009 , Air for Combustion and Ventilation and
applicable provisions of the local building codes.
FURNACE CORROSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in furnace damage.
Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen
compounds, which include fluoride, chloride, bromide, and
iodide. These elements can corrode heat exchangers and
shorten furnace life. Air contaminants are found in aerosol
sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air
fresheners, and other household products.
CAUTION
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
The operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation fans,
clothes dryers, attic exhaust fans or fireplaces could create a
NEGATIVE PRESSURE CONDITION at the furnace.
Make--up air MUST be provided for the ventilation devices,
in addition to that required by the furnace. Refer to the
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard warning in the venting
section of these instructions to determine if an adequate
amount of make--up air is available.
! WARNING
The requirements for combustion and ventilation air depend upon
whether or not the furnace is located in a space having a volume
of at least 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh input rating for all gas
appliances installed in the space.
S Spaces having less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh
require the OUTDOOR COMBUSTION AIR
METHOD.
