A WARNING
Any condition that will allow gas of combustion
products to enter furnace area can cause
nausea, asphyxiation or fire resulting in
damage, injury or death.
Natural gas and propane (LP) gas have characteristic
odors. When your furnace is operating correctly, you
should not smell any unfamiliar odor. Normally,
burning gas with air produces combustion products
which contain carbon dioxide, oxygen and water vapor.
Under abnormal conditions, combustion products and
contain aldehydes and carbon monoxide.
* Aldehydes have a strong pungent, acrid smell that can
cause nausea.
• Carbon monoxide is tasteless, colorless and odorless.
It can cause headaches, flu-like symptoms or nausea.
We refer to all these symptoms as nausea in this
manual. It can also cause death by asphyxiation.
