Tips On Minimizing Combustion By-Products

  • Stop smoking. Passive smoking by children increases the respiratory infections they contract and worsens the symptoms of asthma. If you find it impossible to quit, set aside a well-ventilated "smoking room", perhaps fitted with an air filter unit or an extractor fan.
  • Consider replacing open fires with imitation coal or wood electric fires. Avoid gas fires.
  • Make sure that chimneys are functioning properly - it is important that there is an adequate supply of replacement air available for that used up during combustion.
  • When the time comes to replace your gas cooker (stove), consider buying an electric model.
  • If you must cook with gas, make sure that your hood is sufficiently powerful to remove by-products and that it is installed at the correct height for best effect.
  • Consider installing a high-efficiency gas or oil boiler or furnace with a sealed combustion chamber, which blows by-products outside through a sealed exhaust pipe.
  • Have boilers and fuel-burning appliances serviced once a year.
  • Do not use bottled gas heaters (butane and propane) or paraffin (kerosene) heaters, since these produce a lot of water vapour during combustion, as well as combustion products that are emitted into the interior air.
  • Vent gas-fuelled clothes dryers to the outside, or dry clothes outside when possible.
  • Use incense burners, candles or aromatherapy oils only in a properly ventilated room.
