A Neglected Furnace
Can Be Dangerous.
The best way to ensure that your furnace is safe is to have it checked periodically by a
registered heating contractor. A quick check can reveal small problems, before they become
Targe problems.
A blocked chimney or faulty furnace can cause serious health problems and even death by
allowing carbon monoxide gas to spill into your home. Also, if there isn't sufficient
household air for proper furnace combustion, exhaust gases may be prevented from rising
up the chimney, and leak back into your home.
This can occur when the fireplace, kitchen fan
or other air exhausting appliances are
operated in a home.
If you're a homeowner, it's your respoi
bility to see that your furnace is propel i,
maintained. A safe furnace makes your
home a healthier place to be.
For more information, contact your
natural gas, oil, or propane supplier. Or,
phone a registered heating contractor
near you.
