MIL-HDBK-1024/1
a) Design heating system for an infiltration rate of two air
changes per hour in apparatus area. This rate depends on the installation of
insulation seals on the overhead doors. Ensure the temperature of the
apparatus areas is thermostatically controlled for a minimum of 55 degrees F.
b) Provide a switch activated by opening the overhead doors to
override the space thermostat to stop the heating equipment in the apparatus
area. Provide a minimum temperature thermostat field set at 34 degrees F to
override the heating deactivation switch during door-open periods of
subfreezing ambient temperatures. After the doors are closed, the space
thermostat should resume control. Design for heating systems recovery time of
30 minutes after the doors are closed.
