SERVICE WORKBOOK<br />
Stoichiometric or theoretical complete combustion requires 10 cubic feet of air per 1000 BTUH<br />
input of the gas input. The National Fuel Gas Code also recommends an additional 2.5 cu.ft. of<br />
"excess" air. This 12.5 cu.ft minimum supply air per 1000 BTUH input applies to natural and<br />
propane gas models.<br />
The National Fuel Gas Code also specifies minimum make-up air opening sizes for various<br />
building installations. (Ref: NFPA 54, ANSI Z223.1)<br />
