[Greenbuilding] Fwd: Question on tight house, carbon monoxide

[Reuben Deumling]

Fascinating.
Is there any reason to be so (comparatively) lax about ovens? I mean isn't
it a pretty simple matter to get the fuel air mixture right, or is it more
complicated?

It reminds me of the long standing rules that permit side by side & bottom
freezer refrigerators to consume more electricity per cubic foot... There's
no engineering reason to set this up that way, but there may be plenty of
other reasons to :-)
