2.3. COMMON COMBUSTION AIR PIPE SIZING

Refer to Figures 6 and 7 for typical common combustion air inlet installation. The maximum length is
the sum of the equivalent straight length of horizontal runs, vertical runs, and fittings of the
individual combustion air connector and the common combustion air pipe. The required diameter
lengths for a given total BTU/hr. Inputs are shown in Tables 6 and 7, below.

The chart above shows equivalent pipe lengths of the fittings for the common combustion air pipe.
See section 2.2 for equivalent lengths for fittings for the individual boiler connector.
The maximum equivalent length shown is the sum of the equivalent length of the longest individual
connector plus the equivalent length of the common combustion air pipe.
equivalent length exceeds 60 equivalent feet, contact your AERCO sales representative or
AERCO International for design assistance and approval. It is important to use a WYE as a means
to connect the individual combustion air pipe into the common combustion air pipe. This will
ensure the least amount of pressure drop. Do NOT use a TEE, 90°, or 45° elbow.
The maximum pressure drop of the vent is also 60 equivalent feet. Note that this does NOT
mean that the allowed combined pressure drop between the vent and combustion air is 120
equivalent feet. That is, the vent cannot go above 60 equivalent feet, even if the combustion air
is less than 60 equivalent feet, and vice versa.
