any equipment.

H Danger to life from poisoning by flue gas

H Danger to life from carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous gas, which
arises during the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels
such as oil, gas or solid fuels.
Dangers arise, if carbon monoxide escapes from the
heating system due to a fault or a leak and collects
unnoticed in enclosed spaces.
You can neither see, taste nor smell carbon monoxide.
To avoid danger from carbon monoxide:
▶ Have the heating system inspected and serviced
regularly by an approved contractor.
