Adequate ventilation should considerably reduce the possibility of condensation occurring. The following table shows the smallest sizes of room suitable for each heat setting and the ventilation surface, which should be provided.

REQUIRED VOLUME OF ROOM AND VENTILATION SURFACE:

VOLUME OF LIVING ROOM	VENTILATION SURFACE
	Low Level	High Level
84 cubic meters	105cm^2	105 cm^2
