Q. How safe is natural gas burner?

Answer

Carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and other air pollutants are produced by natural gas and propane burners and can be dangerous to humans and animals. When oil, fat, and other food ingredients are heated to very high temperatures, they release a number of harmful pollutants into the air. Both gas and electric models of self-cleaning ovens release significant amounts of pollution as they incinerate food scraps. Nasal and throat irritation, headaches, exhaustion, and nausea are just some of the symptoms that can be triggered or made worse by prolonged exposure. It is extremely dangerous for young children, persons with asthma, and adults with heart or lung problems to be exposed to polluted air indoors.
