Appliance
safety
-
All appliances should be installed and repaired only
by qualified technicians. Improper ventilation can
starve the combustion process in the appliance and
create a situation that could produce toxic carbon
monoxide gas. Carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless
gas that, in sufficient amounts, may be deadly to
humans. Usually, headaches and/or flu-like systems
are initial signs of carbon monoxide poisoning. If
you suspect that any of your appliances have been
improperly vented, you should discontinue using them
and contact your propane supplier or local fire department
immediately for an inspection.
- An
appliance gas control is a precision mechanism that
may malfunction if it is exposed to water from flooding,
storms, or any other damaging environments. A flooded
gas control must be replaced by a qualified gas appliance
technician. Damaged gas control valves must be replaced.
