Rating : - Illegal in California - H&S.C. Sec. 19881(a).
This product cannot legally be sold in California under California Health & Safety Code Section 19881(a), which states ""No person shall sell, or offer for sale, any new or used unvented heater that is designed to be used inside any dwelling house or unit, with the exception of an electric heater, or decorative gas logs for use in a vented fireplace." [emphasis supplied] The ProCat Model 5053's U.S. Patent No. 6,470,876 openly states ""[t]he heater assembly of the present invention can be used as a portable space heater for a variety of locations including...homes...", i.e., is "designed" for use in dwelling houses. The heater has a history of spontaneously bursting into flame and melting down (its ABS plastic casing melts down at barely above the boiling temp of water), likely from ignition of regulator gas leaks, in separate documented house fires in Cleveland, Ohio (1/26/04), Waukegan, Illinois (3/15/05), and Southern California (12/30/05). The California fire catastrophically burned a child almost to death. Home Depot told Coleman it had stopped carrying these heaters in its California stores in December, 2005, in compliance with a stop-sale demand from the Sacramento County District Attorney. Despite knowledge of its illegality, Coleman continues to sell these heaters in California illegally directly on its own website, through Amazon (which likely is unaware of this law), and through small retailers.
