Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in Your Home is Deadly!
Typical California weather can easily lull us into a false sense of security regarding Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning. Deadly CO poisoning can come from a defective home furnace or appliances. Whether you're a homeowner or renter, annual maintenance of your heating system is crucial - and so is a Carbon Monoxide detector!
A recent article identified certain Carbon Monoxide detectors sold online as "faulty." As the news article states:
“CO is a deadly, odorless, colorless gas.?It is found in fumes produced by stoves, vehicles, lanterns, grills, fireplaces, gas ranges and furnaces. When CO builds up indoors it can fatally poison people and animals who breathe it, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The most common symptoms of CO poisoning are: ?Headache, Dizziness, Weakness, Upset stomach, Vomiting, Chest pain and or confusion. When a lot of CO is breathed in it can make individuals pass out or die.”
