Confined and Unconfined Space  
PROVIDING ADEQUATE  
VENTILATION  
AIR FOR  
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1  
defines a confined space as a space whose  
volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000  
Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggre-  
gate input rating of all appliances installed  
in that space and an unconfining space as a  
space whose volume is not less than 50  
cubicfeetper1,000Btuperhour(4.8m3 per  
kw) of the aggregate input rating of all  
appliances installed in that space. Rooms  
communicating directly with the space in  
whichtheappliancesareinstalled*,through  
openings not furnished with doors, are con-  
sidered a part of the unconfined space.  
COMBUSTION AND  
VENTILATION  
The following are excerpts from National  
Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1, Sec-  
tion5.3, AirforCombustionandVentilation.  
WARNING: This heater shall  
notbeinstalledinaconfinedspace  
or unusually tight construction  
unless provisions are provided  
foradequatecombustionandven-  
tilation air. Read the following in-  
structions to insure proper fresh  
air for this and other fuel-burning  
appliances in your home.  
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three  
following ventilation classifications:  
1. Unusually Tight Construction  
2. Unconfined Space  
3. Confined Space  
The information on pages 4 through 6 will  
help you classify your space and provide  
adequate ventilation.  
This heater shall not be installed in a con-  
fined space or unusually tight construction  
unless provisions are provided for adequate  
combustion and ventilation air.  
Today’s homes are built more energy effi-  
cient than ever. New materials, increased  
insulation, and new construction methods  
help reduce heat loss in homes. Home  
owners weather strip and caulk around  
windows and doors to keep the cold air out  
andthewarmairin.Duringheatingmonths,  
home owners want their homes as airtight  
as possible.  
Unusually Tight Construction  
The air that leaks around doors and win-  
dows may provide enough fresh air for  
combustion and ventilation. However, in  
buildings of unusually tight construction,  
you must provide additional fresh air.  
*Adjoiningroomsarecommunicatingonly  
iftherearedoorlesspassagewaysorventila-  
tion grills between them.  
Unusually tight construction is de-  
fined as construction where:  
a. walls and ceilings exposed to the  
outside atmosphere have a con-  
tinuous water vapor retarder with  
a rating of one perm (6 x 10-11 kg  
per pa-sec-m2) or less with open-  
ings gasketed or sealed and  
While it is good to make your home energy  
efficient,yourhomeneedstobreathe.Fresh  
air must enter your home. All fuel-burning  
appliances need fresh air for proper com-  
bustion and ventilation.  
Exhaust fans, heaters, clothes dryers, and  
fuel burning appliances draw air from the  
house to operate. You must provide ad-  
equate fresh air for these appliances. This  
will insure proper venting of vented fuel-  
burning appliances.  
b. weather stripping has been  
added on openable windows and  
doors and  
c. caulking or sealants are applied  
to areas such as joints around  
window and door frames, be-  
tween sole plates and floors, be-  
tween wall-ceiling joints, be-  
tween wall panels, at penetra-  
tions for plumbing, electrical, and  
gas lines, and at other openings.  
If your home meets all of the three  
criteria above, you must provide ad-  
ditional fresh air. See Ventilation Air  
From Outdoors, page 6.  
If your home does not meet all of the  
three criteria above, proceed to Deter-  
mining Fresh-Air Flow For Heater

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION  
Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space  
Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.  
Space:Includestheroominwhichyouwillinstallheaterplusanyadjoiningroomswithdoorlesspassagewaysorventilationgrillsbetween  
the rooms.  
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).  
Length x Width x Height = ____________________ cu. ft. (volume of space)  
Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)  
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of  
the space.  
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.  
_________________ (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)  
Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = 51.2 or 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)  
3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.

4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.  
_________________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)  
_________________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)  
Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)  
56,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)  
The space in the above 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:  
A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined space, remove door to adjoining  
room or add ventilation grills between rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building, page 6.  
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 6.  
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, ANS Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

Installation Items Needed  
We recommend that you install a sediment  
trap in supply line as shown in Figure 7.  
Locate sediment trap where it is within  
reach for cleaning. Install in piping system  
betweenfuelsupplyandheater.Locatesedi-  
ment trap where trapped matter is not likely  
to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture  
and contaminants. This keeps them from  
going into heater controls. If sediment trap  
is not installed or is installed wrong, heater  
may not run properly.

LIMITED WARRANTY  
VENT-FREE PROPANE/LP GAS PEDESTAL STOVE  
DESA International warrants this product to be free from defects in materials and components for two (2) years from the date of first  
purchase, provided that the product has been properly installed, operated and maintained in accordance with all applicable instructions.  
To make a claim under this warranty the Bill of Sale or cancelled check must be presented.

operating condition and an allowance for labor when provided by a DESA Authorized Service Center. Warranty part(s) MUST be obtained  
through authorized dealers of this product and/or DESA International who will provide original factory replacement parts. Failure to use  
original factory replacement parts voids this warranty. The heater MUST be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all local  
codes and instructions furnished with the unit.  
This warranty does not apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal wear and tear, or parts that fail or become damaged  
as a result of misuse, accidents, lack of proper maintenance or defects caused by improper installation. Travel, diagnostic cost, labor,  
transportation and any and all such other costs related to repairing a defective heater will be the responsibility of the owner.  
TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE JURISDICTION THAT GOVERNS THE SALE OF THE PRODUCT;  
THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY EXCLUDES ANY AND ALL OTHER EXPRESSED WARRANTIES AND LIMITS THE DURATION  
OF ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE TO TWO (2) YEARS ON ALL COMPONENTS FROM THE DATE OF FIRST PURCHASE; AND DESA  
INTERNATIONAL’S LIABILITY IS HEREBY LIMITED TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT AND DESA INTERNA-  
TIONAL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY OTHER DAMAGES WHATSOEVER INCLUDING INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR  
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.  
Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential  
damages, so the above limitation on implied warranties, or exclusion or limitation on damages may not apply to you.  
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
