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 incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be
minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

• Installation and service must be
performed by a qualified installer,
service agency, or the gas supplier.
4. Immediately call your gas supplier from
a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas
supplier's instructions carefully.
5. If you cannot reach your gas
supplier, call the fire department.
