The test results for combustible gases with the burners in operation were negative. A follow-up communication with the Colonial Gas Co. will be made before making any further recommendations. I will contact you as soon as any further information becomes available. Very truly yours, Elise M. Com roni, Chief Environmental Hygiene Branch EMC/ch a 150 Michael S. Dukakis �aremant ,>Crect Governor ✓c7odton �� Philip W.Johnston Secretary David H. Mulligan Commissioner SUBJECT: Gary Wilcox 409 Nye Road Centerville, MA; BY: Al Comproni f ( DATE OF VISIT: November 27 , 1989 At the request of and accompanied by Donna Miorandi, Inspector, Barnstable Health Department, a visit was made to this residence to evaluate the indoor air quality. Mr. & Mrs. Wilcox have lived in this single family house for the past seven years without indoor air quality problems. Approximately six weeks ago they noticed an unpleasant odor in the house when the oven for the gas fired kitchen range was turned on. The same odor was emitted from the outside air vent for the gas fired laundry dryer. They characterized the odor as a kerosine type odor that caused respiratory irritation. They have three children, ages 10 years to several month old that have respiratory infections that are aggravated by these fumes. I characterized the odor as a burnt solvent type odor. The odor was very strong approximately one week ago but was rather mild at the time of the visit. Tests for combustible gases were taken with a combustible gas indicator with a lower detection limit of one part per million ( 1 ppm) . Results are as follows: Location Combustible gases *PPM Kitchen Stove Above burner - burner on negligible In oven - oven on negligible Below oven near burner -oven on negligible Above burner - burner on - pilot off (raw gas) 1000 Location Combustible gases *PPM Kitchen Stove Laundry Dryer Outdoors at vent discharge - dryer on negligible At dryer burner negligible It can be seen from the table that no combustible gases were being emitted from the gas appliances. However, the burnt odor was detectable from the operation of both appliances. A visit was made to the Colonial Gas Co. , Hyannis to obtain further information regarding the gas supply. Joseph C. Jasie, Vice President, Operations was interviewed at the time. The natural gas supply is purchased from Algonquin Gas Co. and enters the Colonial distribution system at the Bourne and. Sagamore pipeline connections. The entire Cape Cod is serviced by this distribution system. The company has not received any complaints similar to this but will check its records further. The system has no traps that might collect odorous material. The gas meters are changed every seven years by the company and it is possible that. a recent meter change could have occurred. Mr. Jasie will check this possibility as a possible source of the odor. A sample of gas will be taken. from the home and if necessary will be tested for possible solvent contamination. The gas company will be contacted in the near future for further information.
