>> While these appliances are typically installed to warm primary living areas, vent-free gas
fireplaces, stoves, and heaters can be installed in just about any room, from hard-to-heat
basements and additions, or in rooms used less frequently. Vent-free products can even
be installed outside to provide heat for your outdoor living areas.
>> Unlike vented products which have limitations on their placement, vent-free products
can be put just about anywhere. On an inside wall, under a window, in a corner or in
the middle of a room -- any area with access to a gas line. Always check with your local
codes as there may be some restrictions.
A SAFE HEATING OPTION
>> Vent-free appliances feature an automatic safety shut-off device (Oxygen Detection
System or ODS). The ODS turns off the gas in case of a malfunction. Since 1980, with
17 million units installed in the U.S. alone, the Consumer Product Safety Commission
has stated that it is not aware of any documented incident in the CPSC In-Depth
Investigation (IDI) database of fatal carbon monoxide poisoning associated with
an ODS-equipped vent-free gas heating product. These appliances have earned an
outstanding safety record. Go to www.ventfree.org for additional information. Call or email
