CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO DEATH

When used without fresh air, vent-free log sets may give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous gas.

Some people - pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease, anemia, or persons under the influence of alcohol, and persons at high altitudes are more affected by carbon monoxide than others.

Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu - headache, dizziness, and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may not be installed or working properly. GET FRESH AIR AT ONCE! Have the heater serviced before using it again.
