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