COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY

For indoor installation, the heater location must provide sufficient air supply for proper combustion and ventilation of the
surrounding area, see Table 3 below.
The minimum requirements for the air supply specify that the room in which a heater is installed should be provided with
two permanent air supply openings; one within 12 inches (30 cm) of the ceiling, the other within 12 in (30 cm) of the
floor for combustion air, in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1, or the National Fuel Gas code, the CSA
B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes, as applicable, and any local codes that may apply. These openings
shall directly, or through duct, connect to outdoor air.
