IMPORTANT
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
further by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation
fan or hood_
