The children are from 10 to 12 years of age, and were conducted by Mrs. refrigerators so far this year. Ten persons died in 1972. The Ontario Provincial Pol- ice advises residents utilizing this kind of equipment to have it installed and serviced regularly by a licenced pro- pane fitter familiar with these units. Propane equipment with a blocked flue passage or with a burner improperly adjusted or partially plugged can produce deadly carbon monoxide fum- es. Tourists, campers. ice fishers, hunters and others with portable propane cooking and heating units 'sbould ensure adequate ventilation while using them. Only a short length of time is required to produce a fatal quantity of carbon monoxide in a closed tent, trailer, ice bouse or smal1 cabin. A pamphlet preparcd by tbe Energv Brancb of the Minis- try of Consumer and Com- mercial Relations provides a guide to mainitaining and cleaning "servel" propane refrigerators for individuals in remote areas wbo are unable to obtain qualified service.
