Unflued gas heaters dangerous to your health

Hi all
As of last night we turned off our old unflued gas heater for the last time. We saw an article on a current affair about the emissions they give off. My mums breathing isnt the best and she noted 2 other relos have died from breathing related disorders and they had unflued gas heating.

Went to AGL shop today, got them coming out on Friday to give a quite to install a Rinnai "energysaver" flued automatic gas room heater. Anyone out there who has an unflued heater I recommend to get a flued one ASAP. natural gas remains the cheapest heating by far, but do get a flued heater whatever you do. The one we het only nees a small hole in the wall right behind it. You can even get "powerflue" to run down througg the floor.

Sadly we wont get much change out of $1500 but peace of mind is worth it.
