DANGER: Carbon monoxide
poisoning may lead to death!
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If you
have these signs, the fireplace may not be

fireplace serviced. Some people are more af

fected by carbon monoxide than others. These
include pregnant women, people with heart or
lung disease or anemia, those under the influ

Natural and
propane/LP gases are odorless. An odor-

odor added to the gas can fade. Gas may be
present even though no odor exists.
