  • Are you certain that your dwelling is adequately defended against potential CO poisoning? Leaks of carbon monoxide from flawed appliances can become lethal without warning, offering no opportunity for detection. Carbon monoxide detectors play a vital role in identifying increases in CO levels and giving you the warning you need. Carbon monoxide poisoning often mimics the flu without fever. It’s crucial to recognize the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning:

    • Nausea
    • Lethargy
    • Dizziness
    • Headaches
    • Weakness

Preventing Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Carbon monoxide poisoning often originates from malfunctioning gas-powered devices. Common household sources include gas barbecues, clothes dryers, heating systems, car exhaust, gas heaters, and water boilers. Always operate these machines in areas with good ventilation. Consider these tips to help protect your home from carbon monoxide poisoning:

  • Never use your gas stove for heating.
  • Consider using smart carbon monoxide detectors.
  • Always open the chimney flue when using your fireplace.
  • Regularly service your gas appliances.
  • Know the sound difference between CO and smoke alarms.
  • Avoid running machines such as generators, cars, or any other gas-powered equipment indoors.
  • Don't use flameless chemical heaters indoors.
  • Replace the batteries in your CO alarm twice a year.
  • Ensure your gas appliances are approved by recognized testing bodies like the American Gas Association or Underwriters' Laboratories (UL).
  • Have carbon monoxide detectors installed on every floor of your house.

  • You can trust our guidance on the most effective places to install carbon monoxide detectors in your home. CO is distributed evenly in the air, whereas smoke ascends. It’s critical to install CO alarms as follows:

    • It's vital to install CO detectors on every floor of your home.
    • Position CO detectors at least five feet away from any appliances that burn fuel.
    • Do not install CO detectors in high humidity areas like bathrooms or in direct sunlight.
