1 Page C6-The Chronicle, Thursday. F? Safe space heaters? Kerosene heating appliances can save money on central heating fuel bills, tMtsjjk but the heaters should be UKM considered as supplemental tailHS heat only and used accor umg iu bpccnic manuiacturer instructions. The Better Business V Bureau notes that kerosene heaters can pose fire and air pollution problems, but these risks are minimal when care is used during A heater operation. Most reported fires from m the heating units were caused by carelessness: setting the heater too close to flammable materials; using the wrong fuel; refueling indoors while the heater was in operation. Air pollution # tests show that improvements in kerosene heaters have reduced carbon monoxide levels to that of one cigarette inhaled by a smoker every 8 hours. / ^ If you are now shopping I for a kerosene heater, keep I m in mind that the supplemen- I tal heating units are to be 1 used in conjunction with a central heating plant. Trying to heat an entire house with a kerosene heater will \ . be a disappointment as well \ as a safety hazard. Most \ neaters are not capable of handling the heating load. However, you can buy "central" type kerosene heaters that have a heat output to meet whole house needs. To avoid pollution, ^^^B M kerosene heaters for inhouse use should be fueled II with k-1 kerosene. It is low B I in sulfer. The other typeK-2 kerosene-is higher in ^^^^B sulfer and will emit lots of pollution. K-2 usually clogs wicks in heaters causing fl operaling lfouble: ~ ^^B When you buy the heater, ^^B buy a brand-new container for the fuel. Mark it ^^B. "kerosene." Don't use con- ^^B t tainers for kerosene that have been used for gasoline, turpentine, mineral spirits, alcohol. The residue in the used container may cause H^BB an explosion when you fuel the heater. The fuel for the heater ^^1 should .be kept in a cool ^B1 spot such as a garage or ^B1 storage room and away from children. When you refuel the heater and fuel is cold, leave room in the heater tank for the fuel to expand. Also, advises the B^BV BBB, have plenty of ven- B^^ j tilation in the room when you run the heater; never set the heater in a doorway ? or hallway, and turn off the heater when you retire for the night. Reducing II D/ifir hill ml Was your last electric bill ^ " outrageous? Many North Carolinians used large amounts of electricity to keep warm during the re- I^LI cent cold snap.
