Important Product Safety Information Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product The Repair Parts list designates parts that contain refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). RCF has been classified as a possible human carcinogen. When exposed to temperatures above 1805°F, such as during direct flame contact, RCF changes into crystalline silica, a known carcinogen.

Informations importantes sur la sécurité du produit Produit en fibre de céramique réfractaire La liste des pièces de rechange désigne les pièces contenant des fibres céramiques réfractaires (RCF). Le RCF a été classé comme cancérogène possible pour l’homme. Quand exposé à des températures supérieures à 1805 ° F, comme lors d’un contact direct avec une flamme, Le RCF se transforme en silice cristalline, un cancérigène connu.

Venting instructions are guidelines only. Consult a venting expert on the design of a specific vent system for your application. The ASHRAE Venting Guide and The National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 should be considered in all venting systems. Conventional vent material may not be suitable for the application. Flue gases can leak carbon monoxide from the joints on these materials and can result in severe personal injury or death.
