A building of unusually tight construction is defined by the National Fuel Gas Code as having all of the following features: • Walls and ceilings exposed to outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 perm or less with openings gasketed and sealed • Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors • Caulking and 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. For Buildings of Other than Unusually Tight Construction 1) Determine whether the boiler is to be installed in a confined space - A confined space is defined by the National Fuel Gas Code as having a volume less than 50 cubic feet per 1000 BTU/hr input of all appliances installed in that space. To determine whether the boiler room is a confined space: a. Total the input of all appliances in the boiler room in thousands of BTU/hr. Round the result to the next highest 1000 BTU/hr. 5 b. Find the volume of the room in cubic feet. The volume of the room in cubic feet is: Length (ft) x width (ft) x ceiling height (ft) In calculating the volume of the boiler room, consider the volume of adjoining spaces only if no doors are installed between them. If doors are installed between the boiler room and an adjoining space, do not consider the volume of the adjoining space, even if the door is normally left open. c. Divide the volume of the boiler room by the input in thousands of BTU/hr. If the result is less than 50, the boiler room is a confined space. Example: An AWI162EN and a water heater are to be installed in a room measuring 6 ft - 3 in x 7 ft with an 8 ft ceiling. The water heater has an input of 30000 BTU/hr: Total input in thousands of BTU/hr = (162000 BTU/hr + 30000 BTU/hr)/1000 = 192 Volume of room = 6.25 ft x 7 ft x 8 ft = 350 ft3 350/192 = 1.82. Since 1.82 is less than 50, the boiler room is a confined space. 2) Unconfined Space - Natural infiltration into the boiler room will normally provide adequate air for combustion and ventilation without additional louvers or openings into boiler room. 3) Confined Space - Provide two openings into the boiler room, one near the floor and one near the ceiling. The top edge of the upper opening must be within 12” of the ceiling and the bottom edge of the lower opening must be within 12” of the floor (Figure 3). • Each opening must have a free area of 1 square inch per 1000 BTU/hr input of all gas burning appliances in the boiler room. The minimum opening dimension is 3 inches. Minimum opening free area is 100 square inches per opening. • If the total volume of both the boiler room and the room to which the openings connect is less than 50 cubic feet per 1000 BTU/hr of total appliance input, install a pair of identical openings into a third room. Connect additional rooms with openings until the total volume of all rooms is at least 50 cubic feet per 1000 BTU/hr of input. • The “free area” of an opening takes into account the blocking effect of mesh, grills, and louvers. Where screens are used, they must be no finer than .” (4 x 4) mesh. • If providing openings into adjacent rooms is undesirable, combustion and ventilation air can be brought into the boiler room from outdoors. See the instructions under “For Buildings of Unusually Tight Construction”. FIGURE 3: BOILER INSTALLED IN CONFINED SPACE, ALL AIR FROM INSIDE 6 For Buildings of Unusually Tight Construction For Buildings of Unusually Tight Construction ) Openings must be installed between the boiler room and the outdoors or a ventilated space, such as an attic or crawl space, which communicates directly with the outdoors. 2) Two openings are required. The top edge of the upper opening must be within 12 inches of the ceiling. The bottom edge of the lower opening must be within 12 inches of the floor. 3) Size openings and ducts as follows: • Vertical ducts or openings directly outdoors (Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6) - Each opening must have a free cross sectional area of 1 square inch per 4000 BTU/hr of the total input of all gas-fired appliances in the boiler room but not less than 100 square inches. Minimum opening size is 3 inches. • Openings to outdoors via horizontal ducts (Figure 7) - Each opening must have a free cross sectional area of 1 square inch per 2000 BTU/hr of the total input of all gas fired appliances in the boiler room but not less than 100 square inches. Minimum opening size is 3 inches. • The “free area” of an opening takes into account the blocking effect of mesh, grills, and louvers. Where screens are used, they must be no finer than .” (4 x 4) mesh.
