Airborne materials, such as fiberglass
and dust, are present during
construction and remodeling. These
materials can be drawn in with the
combustion air and obstruct burner
ports, resulting in carbon monoxide
production, a fire hazard, or building
freeze damage. During construction
or remodeling, check burner ports
weekly and also at the conclusion of
construction clean up. Clear and
remove any debris by following these
instructions. Failure to inspect and
clear gas burner ports could result in
