around the home, such as: water softener salts, any type of
household cleaning product, any type of laundry product,
adhesives, paints, varnishes, paint strippers, waxes and plastics, etc.
During remodeling be sure the combustion air is fresh and
uncontaminated. If these compounds are burned in your furnace,
the heat exchangers and metal vent system may deteriorate.

factory--authorized replacement parts, kits, and accessories when
modifying this product.
This furnace contains safety devices which must be manually reset.
