Safety Rules
Your furnace is built to provide many years of safe and dependable
service providing it is properly installed and maintained. However,
abuse and/or improper use can shorten the life of the furnace and
create hazards for you, the owner.
A. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission encourages
installation of carbon monoxide alarms. There can be various
sources of carbon monoxide in a building or dwelling. The
sources could be gas--fired clothes dryers, gas cooking stoves,
water heaters, furnaces, gas--fired fireplaces, wood fireplaces.
Carbon monoxide can cause serious bodily injury and/or death.
Carbon monoxide or "CO" is a colorless and odorless gas
produced when fuel is not burned completely or when the flame
does not receive sufficient oxygen.
Therefore, to help alert people of potentially dangerous carbon
monoxide levels, you should have a commercially available
carbon monoxide alarm that is listed by a nationally recognized
testing agency in accordance with Underwriters Laboratories
Inc. Standard for Single and Multiple Station Carbon Monoxide
Alarms, ANSI/UL 2034 or the CSA 6.19--01 Residential Carbon
Alarming Devices installed and maintained in the building or
dwelling concurrently with the gas--fired furnace installation
(see Note below). The alarm should be installed as
recommended by the alarm manufacturer's installation
instructions.
B. There can be numerous sources of fire or smoke in a building or
dwelling. Fire or smoke can cause serious bodily injury, death,
and/or property damage. Therefore, in order to alert people of
potentially dangerous fire or smoke, you should have fire
extinguisher and smoke alarms listed by Underwriters
Laboratories installed and maintained in the building or dwelling
(see Note below).
Note: The manufacturer of your furnace does not test any alarms
and makes no representations regarding any brand or type of
alarms.
C. To ensure safe and efficient operation of your furnace, you
should do the following:
1.
