Jim, BEFORE you purchase a vent free unit, Take a look at the first
page of instructions that comes with the unit. In short it tells you
to open the window when you are using it! Many Many warnings and
cautions in there. They may burn "clean" (I would debate that) but why
would you burn a gas appliance and let the combustion products go into
your home? Do yourself a favor and get a VENTED unit. I wouldnt have
anything "ventless" in my home. A gas stove with and exhaust hood is
bad enough.
