Consult factoryfor details.WARNINGSPay Attention to These TermsWARNING: This unit contains refractory ceramicfiber (RCF) insulation in the combustion chamber.RCF, as manufactured, does not contain respirablecrystalline silica. However, following sustainedexposure to very high temperatures (>2192F), theRCF can transform into crystalline silica(cristabolite). The International Agency for Researchon Cancer (IARC) has classified the inhalation ofcrystalline silica (cristabolite) as carcinogenic tohumans.When removing the burners or heat exchangers,take precautions to avoid creating airborne dust andavoid inhaling airborne fibers. When cleaning spills,use wet sweeping or High Efficiency Particulate Air(HEPA) filtered vacuum to minimize airborne dust.Use feasible engineering controls such as localexhaust ventilation or dust collecting systems tominimize airborne dust. Wear appropriate personalprotective equipment including gloves, safetyglasses with side shields, and appropriate NIOSHcertified respiratory protection, to avoid inhalation ofairborne dust and airborne fiber particles.
