What is carbon monoxide poisoning, and how can I find out if my family is at risk?
Carbon Monoxide is a noxious gas that is produced anytime something is burned! If you use any kind of combustible heat, you are at risk of poisoning. Sadly, around this time of year we hear horror stories about this Silent Killer taking people while they sleep. Headaches, nausea, and flu-like symptoms can all be signs of CO poisoning. If you feel sick at home, then better when you leave, thats a great indication that there may be a problem. If you heat with gas, oil, wood, kerosene, or any fuel that burns, you need a Carbon Monoxide detector. We carry a great one that plugs into any outlet, and you can find them elsewhere.
