Please recommend a room heater that doesn't have the California Prop 65 cancer warning. I am helping an elderly gentleman and his only requirement is that the heater comes without this warning.
I had thought only ceramic heaters have the cancer warning. And I thought the infrared heaters have the warning. But the simple electric heaters I saw also have the Prop 65 cancer warning on the box. So I am stumped. Please help! Thank you.
According to questions and answers this heater is clear of prop 65
Seems on the small side. I would call the lasko company and verify and see if they have bigger.

Ps if there is one there has to be more. I would call the 3 major company's and ask
I believe Lasko is a prime "contract" manufacturer, and builds units for a number of other brands to re-badge and sell as their own.
They're also US-based manufacturing, mostly fans, electric heaters, and humidifiers.
I've been more than pleased with the products I've used, and it might be a good resource to ask.
Well I took that into account when I suggested you call the manufacturers tomorrow.
Maybe it doesn't exist?
Maybe all heaters have this potential?
Maybe there is a type of heater that has less cancer risk??
Suggestion:. I do not know if they even make these anymore but years ago my parents bought a electric heater that was a baseboard heater. It didn't have a fan and blow heat it just radiated heat.
I wonder if that would have the same prop 65?
Update:
Something like this. On my phone I don't see a prop 65 warning.
Heard back from Lasko, whose rep wrote that the company is not required to participate in Prop 65. And that none of their products have any Prop 65 warnings.
Which contradicts what I found on Lowe's website.
I hate it when customer service employees respond with garbage info And that too in writing.
Where is the accountability for providing such misinformation?
No, I couldn’t find one. Looks like Prop 65 cancer warnings are very widespread, not only on heaters but on a lot of other products too.
The gentleman I was helping decided to use an old wood-burning stove he had in his attic. I don’t know if that has the Prop 65 warning too. I decided not to remind him of that.
