The best way to ensure that your furnace is. safe is to have it checked periodically sby a
registered heating contractor. A quick check can reveal small problems, before they become
large 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 isnt 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 airexhausting appliances are
operated in a home.;
If.you re a homeowner, it's your respor si
bility to see that your furnace is properly' •
'maintained. A safe furnace makes.your
home a.healthier place to be.
