Equipment

• Ensure that all the parts of the propane heater system, hoses, nozzles and other connection devices are compatible with each other. If parts are not compatible with each other, dangerous fumes could leak into the room.
  
  

Environment

• Clear the area around the portable propane heater of any flammable materials. Place the heater on a level and stable surface to prevent the heater from falling over.
  
  

Considerations

Prevention/Solution

• Install carbon monoxide detectors in your home and in any room where you will be using your propane heater, to detect any unsafe levels of carbon monoxide in your home.
  
  

Warning

• Check the propane heater regularly for any defects or potential issues with the system.
