Appliance Guidelines

What you should know about gas appliances

To make your home safe:

• Never use your gas range or oven to heat your home.
• Gas fireplaces and space heaters are meant for added warmth, not as
  a main source of heat.
• Remember to turn off these appliances before you go to bed or leave home.
• Hot water can be dangerous. Your hot water heater should be set at
  125 degrees or less.
• Natural gas appliances should have a clear, steady blue flame.
• Keep the area around your furnace and hot water heater clear.
