Chris,
The boiler called for by 90.1 per G3.1.3.2 is "natural draft". No burner
fan for that type.

Choice. It is perhaps the most distinct and dignifying characteristic
of humans. Consciously and with understanding, we choose what is true,
honorable, right, pure, lovely … or otherwise. Like the rest of
humanity, my choices don’t always align with true, honorable, right,
pure, and lovely, but I know those are what I set my sights upon. I
choose them.
