California safe drinking water and
toxic enforcement act
This 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 dryers will minimize
combustion. Exposure to these substances can be
minimized further by properly venting the dryer
to the outdoors.
