CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Special Warning for Installa on of Furnace or Air Handling Units in
Enclosed Areas such as Garages, U lity Rooms or Parking Areas
Carbon monoxide producing devices (such as an automobile, space
heater, gas water heater, etc.) should not be operated in enclosed areas
such as unven lated garages, u lity rooms or parking areas because of
the danger of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning resul ng from the exhaust
emissions. If a furnace or air handler is installed in an enclosed area such
as a garage, u lity room or parking area and a carbon monoxide producing
device is operated therein, there must be adequate, direct outside
ven la on.
This ven la on is necessary to avoid the danger of CO poisoning which
can occur if a carbon monoxide producing device con nues to operate in
the enclosed area. Carbon monoxide emissions can be (re)circulated
throughout the structure if the furnace or air handler is opera ng in any
mode.
CO can cause serious illness including permanent brain
damage or death.
RIESGO DE INTOXICACIÓN POR MONÓXIDO DE CARBONO
A dvertencia especial para la instalación de calentadores ó manejadoras
de aire en áreas cerradas como estacionamientos ó cuartos de servicio.
Los equipos ó aparatos que producen monóxido
(tal como automóvil, calentador de gas, calentador de
gas, etc) no deben ser operados en áreas cerradas debido al riesgo
de envenenamiento por monóxido de
carbono (CO) que resulta de las
emisiones de gases de combus ón.
Si el equipo ó aparato se opera en
dichas áreas, debe exis r una adecuada ven lación directa al exterior.
Esta ven lación es necesaria para evitar el peligro de envenenamiento
por CO, que puede ocurrir si un
disposi vo que produce
de carbono sigue operando en el lugar cerrado.
Las emisiones de monóxido de carbono pueden circular a través
del aparato cuando se opera en cualquier modo.
El monóxido de carbono puede causar enfermedades severas
como daño cerebral permanente ó muerte.
RISQUE D'EMPOISONNEMENT AUMONOXYDE DE CARBONE
Aver ssement special au sujet de l'installa on d'appareils de chauffage
ou de traitement d'air dans des endroits clos, tets les garages, les
locaux d'entre en et les sta onnements.
Evitez de me re en marche les appareils produisant du monoxyde
de carbone (tels que les automobile, les appareils de chauffage
autonome,etc.) dans des endroits non ven lés tels que les
d'empoisonnement au monoxyde de carbone. Si vous devez faire
fonc onner ces appareils dans un endroit clos, assures-vous
qu'il y ait une ven la on directe provenant de l'exterier.
Ce e ven la on est nécessaire pour éviter le danger d'intoxica on
au CO pouvant survenir si un appareil produisant du monoxyde
de carbone con nue de fonc onner au sein de la zone confinée.
Les émissions de monoxyde de carbone peuvent etre recircules dans les
endroits clos, si l'appareil de chauffage ou de traitement d'air sont
en marche.
