				(acceptable machine room temp - make up air temp)]
The ventilation or air-conditioning system will be provided
				with the same source of power (normal, optional standby, legally required
				standby, or emergency) as the elevator equipment so that the temperature
				control is available at all times that the elevators have power.
EXCEPTION:
For buildings four stories or less, natural or
							 mechanical means may be used in lieu of an independent ventilation or
							 air-conditioning system to keep the equipment space ambient air temperature and
							 humidity in the range specified by the elevator equipment manufacturer.
