1) The system must be manufactured specically for this purpose.
2) Size the system to deliver combustion air at the rate prescribed by the system manufacturer’s instructions, but no less
than 0.35 CFM for each 1000 BTU/hr of the combined input of all fuel burning appliances in the boiler room. If
exhaust fans are present within the building, additional capacity may be required to prevent the boiler room from being
depressurized.
3) The system must be interlocked to prevent operation of the fuel burning appliances in the boiler room if the system is not
operating.
