The State of California enacted the California Safe
drinking water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986,
(Prop. 65), which “prohibits any person in the course of
doing business from knowingly and intentionally
exposing any individual to a chemical known to the State
of California to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity
without first giving clear and reasonable warning to such
individuals.” The Governor’s Scientific Advisory Panel
added carbon monoxide to the list of hazardous
chemicals known to cause reproductive harm.
In order to establish full compliance with Proposition 65,
we attached a yellow warning label to each gas fired
appliance manufactured by Keating of Chicago, Inc.
Carbon monoxide would not be present in
concentrations that would pose a “significant risk” to the
consumer when the equipment is installed, operated and
maintained as follows:
• Installed in accordance with all local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, with the current National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 (latest edition).
• Installed under a properly designed operating exhaust
hood.
• Connected to the type of gas for which the appliance
is manufactured.
• In-line pressure regulator, not supplied by Keating,
must be installed outside the appliance to maintain
proper incoming gas pressure (7” W.C. Natural, 11”
W.C. L.P.).
• The appliance is adjusted for the manifold pressure
marked on the serial plate.
• Adequate air supply to the appliance.
• The equipment is operated in the manner intended
using the proper utensils.
• Keep the equipment clean and have it checked
periodically.
• Burner air adjustments, mechanical maintenance and
repairs must be performed by qualified service
personnel.
If the equipment is not installed, operated and
maintained in accordance with the above,
concentrations of carbon monoxide in excess of the
established limits could be present in the kitchen
environment.
