lNIPORTAN~ SAFETY’NOTICE
●
The California Safe Drinking Water and’ Toxic
Enforcement
Act
requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to
the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm,
and
requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposure to such substances.
●
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure
to
four of these substances,
namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused
primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural
gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners,
indicated by
a
bluish rather than a yellow flame,
will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to
these substances can be minimized by venting with
an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
