Really-equating using a catalytic heater with smoking, I assume in reference to use of tobacco products? Wow
Thats a pretty long reach.
Windows are open due to oxygen depletion- not so much the by-products of combustion, like raw flame from stove or oven. Some folks are more susceptible to particulates in the air.
Installation /user manualInteresting thought though- Im a smoker, never tried instead of running out in the rain to burn one-firing up our Wave heater. Ahh...
But to the topic, were been using our Wave 3 exclusively since March of '03. We removed the furnace. Tee'd off the stove-no other regulator needed.
