WATER VAPOR: A BY-PRODUCT OF VENT-FREE ROOM
Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion. An vent-
free room heater produces approximately one (1) ounce
(30ml) of water for every 1,000 BTU's (.3KW 's) of gas
input per hour.
Vent-free room heaters are intended for supplemental heat
(a room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire house).
In most supplemental heat application, the water vapor does
not create a problem. In most applications, the water vapor
enhances the low humidity atmosphere experience during
cold weather.
The following steps will help insure that water vapor does

2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be
used to help lower the water vapor content of the air.
3. Do not use a vent-free room heater as the primary heat
source.

the air. Although this is beneficial, installing heater
in rooms without enough ventilation air
cause mildew to
form from too much moisture.
