Please note,f the makeup air quantity is negative,no additional makeup air will be re- <br /> quired for ventilation,if the value is positive refer to Table 501.3.2 and size the opening. Transfer the cfm,size of opening and type <br /> (round,rectangular,flex or rigid)to the last line of section D. The make-up air supply must be installed per IMC 501.3.2.3. <br /> Table 501.3.1 <br /> PROCEDURE TO DETERMINE MAKEUP AIR QUANITY FOR EXHAUST EQUIPMENT IN DWELLINGS <br /> (Additional combustion air will be required for combustion appliances,see KAIR method for calculations) <br /> One or multiple power One or multiple fan- One atmospherically vent Multiple atmospherical- <br /> vent or direct vent ap- assisted appliances and gas or oil appliance or ly vented gas or oil <br /> pliances or no combus- power vent ordlrect vent one solid fuel appliance appliances or solid fuel <br /> tion appliances appliances appliances <br /> Column C Column D <br /> Column A Column B <br /> 1. <br /> a)pressure factor 0.15 0.09 0.06 0.03 <br /> (cfm/sf) <br /> b)conditioned floor area(sf)(including j , a <br /> unfinished basements) 1• <br /> Estimated House infiltration(cfm):(la _73 -7 <br /> 2.Exhaust Capacity <br /> a) nuous(dm);exh(not applonlyicable <br /> ventilation <br /> on <br /> system(cfm);(not applicable to ba- <br /> lanced ventilation systems such as <br /> HRV) <br /> b)clothes dryer(dm) 135 135 133 135 <br /> c)80%of largest exhaust rating(dm); <br /> Kitchen hood typically 2) i �\ <br /> (not applicable If recirculating system y (,J <br /> or if powered makeup air is electrically <br /> Interlocked and match to exhaust) <br /> d)80%of next largest exhaust rating <br /> (dm); bath fan typically Not <br /> (not applicable if recirculating system Applicable <br /> or If powered makeup air is electrically pp <br /> interiodced and matched to exhaust) <br /> Total Exhaust Capacity(dm); 3 5- <br /> 12a 2b+2c+ <br /> 3.Makeup Air Quantity(dm) <br /> � <br /> a)total exhaust capacity(from above) <br /> b)estimated house Infiltration(from <br /> /Makeabove) / 3 1-/- <br /> Makeup <br /> up Alr Quantity(dm); <br /> (3a-3b) 3 <br /> (if value is negative,no makeup air Is + Sq. <br /> needed) <br /> 4.For makeup Air Opening Sizing,refer <br /> to Table 501.4.2 <br /> A.

Use this column if there is one fan-assisted appliance perventing system.(Appliances other than atmospherically vented appliances may also be in- <br /> cluded.) <br /> C. Use this column if there Is one atmospherically vented(other than fan-assisted)gas or oil appliance per venting system or one solid fuel appliance. <br /> 0. Use this column If there are multiple atmospherically vented gas or oil appliances using a common vent or If there are atmospherically vented gas or oil <br /> appliances and solid fuel appliances. <br /> Kt6tivED Page 3 of 6 <br /> • <br /> OCT 202016 <br /> CiTY OF ORONO ' <br />
