1- SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
Combustion chamber insulation in this product
contains ceramic ber material. Ceramic bers
can be converted to cristobalite in very high
temperature applications. The International Agency
for Research on Cancer (IARC) has concluded,
Crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz
or cristobalite from occupational sources is
carcinogenic to humans (Group1). Avoid breathing
dust and contact with skin and eyes. Use NIOSH
certied dust respirator (N95). This type of
respirator is based on the OSHA requirements
for cristobalite at the time this document was
written. Other types of respirators may be needed
depending on the job site conditions. Current
NIOSH recommendations can be found on the
NIOSH website https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/
silica/. NIOSH approved respirators, manufacturers,
and phone numbers are also listed on this website.
Wear long-sleeved, loose tting clothing, gloves,
and eye protection. Apply enough water to the
combustion chamber lining to prevent dust. Wash
potentially contaminated clothes separately from
other clothing. Rinse clothes washer thoroughly.
NIOSH stated First Aid. Eye: Irrigate immediately.
Breathing: Fresh air.

WARNING
This prod
uct contains Fibrous glass. Fibrous
glass is a synthetic ber made from tiny particles
of glass. Fibrous glass has been classied as a
possible human carcinogen. When disturbed as a
result of servicing or repair, brous glass becomes
airborne and, if inhaled, may be hazardous to
your health. It can harm the eyes, skin, and the
lungs. Airborne bers from these materials have
been listed by the State of California as a possible
cause of cancer through inhalation. Adhere
to the following precautions and procedures.
Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin and
eyes. Use NIOSH certied dust respirator (e.g.,
N95). Other types of respirators may be needed
depending on the job site conditions. Current NIOSH
recommendations can be found on the NIOSH
website https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/. Approved
respirators, manufacturers, and phone numbers
are also listed on this website. Wear appropriate
personal protective clothing to prevent skin contact,
as well as gloves and eye protection. Wash skin
daily at end of each work shift, and prior to eating,
drinking, smoking, etc. Workers whose clothing
may have been contaminated should change into
uncontaminated clothing before leaving the work
premises. Wash potentially contaminated clothes
separately from other clothing. Rinse clothes washer
thoroughly. Follow all Local, State and Federal
guidelines for disposal.
NIOSH stated First Aid. Eye: Irrigate immediately.
Breathing: Fresh air.

electrical problems, corrosion, inoperative parts,
mold and other unforeseen issues which can
occur over time. Any equipment determined by
a professional as damaged by a ood, dened
as excess of water or other liquid, shall be
replaced. Failure to follow these directions will
