WATER VAPOR: A BY-PRODUCT OF UNVENTED ROOM HEATERS
Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion. An unvented room heater produces approximately one (1)
ounce (30 ml) of water for every 1,000 BTUs (0.3 KWs) of gas input per hour. Unvented room heaters are
recommended as supplemental heat (a room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire house). In
most supplemental heat applications, the water vapor does not create a problem. In most applications,
the water vapor enhances the low humidity atmosphere experienced during cold weather. The following
steps will help ensure that water vapor does not become a problem:
1. Be sure the heater is sized properly for the application, including ample combustion air and
circulation air.
2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be used to help lower the water vapor content
of the air.
3. Do not use an unvented room heater as the primary heat source.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall not be
installed in a confined space or unusually
tight construction unless provisions are provided
for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
Read the following instructions to ensure proper
fresh air for this and other fuel-burning
appliances in your home.
This heater shall not be installed in a confined
space or unusually tight construction unless
provisions are provided for adequate combustion
and ventilation air. Adjoining rooms are
connecting only if there are odorless
passageways or ventilation grills between them.
Unusually Tight Construction
Providing Adequate Ventilation
The air that leaks around doors and windows
may provide enough fresh air for combustion and
ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually
tight construction, you must provide additional
fresh air. Unusually tight construction is defined
as construction where:
a) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside
atmosphere have a continuous water vapor
retarder with a rating of one perm (6×10-11kg
per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasket or
sealed and
This heater shall not be installed in a room or
space unless the required volume of indoor
combustion air is provided by the method
described in the NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the INTERNATIONAL
FUEL GAS CODE, or applicable local codes.
The following are excerpts from National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54. Air for
Combustion and Ventilation. All spaces in homes
fall into one of the three following ventilation
classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconfined Space
3. Confined Space
b) Weather stripping has been added on
openable windows and on doors and
c) Caulking or 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.
The information on the following pages will help
you classify your space and provide adequate
ventilation.
Confined and Unconfined Space
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223 .1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a
space whose volume is less than 50 cu. ft. per
1,000 BTU/hr (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate
input rating of all appliances installed in that
space and an unconfined space as a space
whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per
1,000 BTU/hr (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate
input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. Rooms connecting directly with the space
in which the appliances are installed, through
openings not furnished with doors, are
considered a part of the unconfined space.
If your home meets all of the three criteria above,
you must provide additional fresh air. See
“Ventilation Air from Outdoors”. If your home
does not meet all of the three criteria above,
proceed to “Determining Fresh-Air Flow for
Heater Location”.
DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION
Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space. Space: Includes the room in
which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with door less passageways or ventilation grills
between the rooms.
1. Determine the Volume of space in cubic feet
Length X Width X Height = ___________________ cu. Ft.
(Including adjoining rooms with door less passageways or ventilation grills between rooms)
Example: 24’ (L) X 16’ (W) 8’ (H) = 3,072 cu. Ft.
2. Multiply the volume of space by 20 BTU/Hr. to determine the maximum BTU/Hr. the space can
support.
Example: 3.072 cu. Ft. X 20 BTU/Hr. = 61,440 BTU/Hr.
(Maximum BTU/Hr. the room can support)
3. Add the BTU/Hr. of all the fuel burning appliances in the space
Vent Free Heater _________________BTU/Hr.
Gas Appliance #1_________________BTU/Hr.
Gas Appliance #2_________________BTU/Hr.
Example:
Vent Free Heater
Gas Appliance #1
Total
26,000 BTU/Hr.
35,000 BTU/Hr.
61,000 BTU/Hr.
The space in the prior example is a confined space because the actual BTU/hr used is more than the
maximum BTU/hr the space can support.
You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are as follows:
Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined
space:
a) Remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms. See “Ventilation Air
from Inside Building” on next page.
b) Vent room directly to the outdoors. See the following “Ventilation Air from Outdoors” for details.
c) Install a lower BTU/hr heater if lower BTU/hr size makes room unconfined. If the actual BTU/hr
used is less than the maximum BTU/hr the space can support, the space is an unconfined
space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.
WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an
unconfined space, or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion
and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA
54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, or applicable local codes.
