I am finishing the basement.
Dryer, Boiler and furnace are in same area, so need combustion air supply.
Doing just a duct (4 inct) or so will mean lot of draft in winters.
Need some suggestion or a contractor who can suggest a well suited system. Have small kids so do not need any negative reversal...
Furnace still have life, about 15 yrs old so do not want to change that, unless no other option.

Non load bearing wall
Can you give an idea what to do. I can put a metal louvre door on Non-load bearing wall, that will server the purpose for the nj building code, as this room will be un-confined. But, it's still not suffient air supply, becuase the air is coming from inside the house.
