SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM FIRE, EXPLOSION AND CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
This is a direct-fired forced air construction heater for either indoor construction or outdoor use. Its intended
use is primarily the temporary heating of buildings or structures under construction, alteration or repair. All the
products of combustion generated by the heater are forced through the heater and released into the area being
heated. This heater operates at approximately 99%+ combustion efficiency but still produces a small amount
of carbon monoxide. Humans can tolerate small amounts of carbon monoxide for short periods. Carbon
monoxide can build up in a heated space and failure to provide adequate ventilation could result in poisoning
or death.
