Regardless of room size, all rooms containing the appliance must have direct access to the outside air via an
openable window or equivalent.
Where there are other fuel-burning appliances in the same room, BS 5440-2: 2000 should be
consulted to determine the correct amount of free area ventilation requirements.
The above requirements also allow for use of a gas oven and grill, but you need to consult a
qualified engineer if there are other gas-burning appliances in the same room.
