Mike:

Try NFPA 54 and the equipment manufacturers' installation requirements.

Hi to all,
I am doing an energy audit on a museum with a  infrared heater that has the 
wrong combustion air ductwork(looks like a 4 or 6  inch dryer flex. going 
through a condition space.) Condensation  caused.
I want to specify in my report the actual  corrective measure and I looked 
through ASHRAE 90.1 2004 and could not find a  section that talked specifically 
about that?
Could someone point me in the right direction?I  spoke with my project manager 
who indicated the length of run and specific  information from the equipment 
spec sheet determined size.
and I am wanting to recommend at least R6 insulated  duct.
 
Thanks in advance.
