Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation
grills or ducts. You must provide two perma-
nent openings: one within 12" (30.5 cm) of
the ceiling and one within 12" (30.5 cm) of
the floor. Connect these items directly to the
outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors.
These spaces include attics and crawl spaces.
Follow the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and
Ventilation for required size of ventilation
grills or ducts.
IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for
inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermo-
stat-controlled power vent. Heated air entering
the attic will activate the power vent.
