A lot of times we go to an older home to perform a gas test and we find an old wall space heater that has been banned by the Federal Government. The reason for this ban is the built in gas shut off valve that has the potential to leak causing carbon monoxide poisoning and the heater having asbestos built into the unit. So, if your wall space heater is over 40 years old, chances are it has been banned by the Federal Government. Sorry, don't kill the messenger. But, we don't want your wall heater to kill you. :)
