Carbon
Monoxide Monitor
There are many threats to your home and family from internal
mechanical failures or extreme environmental conditions in your
home. Carbon monoxide gas is a by-product of burning fossil fuels.
It is a colorless, odorless, and highly toxic gas. A 0.1% concentration
of carbon monoxide can be deadly. Some common household sources
of carbon monoxide are old or leaky furnaces, blocked gas or appliance
vents, fireplaces, stoves, vehicles in attached garages, and even
tobacco smoke. Carbon monoxide is a serious and common concern
as it is present in almost every home in very small concentrations.
Without a carbon
monoxide monitor it is almost impossible to detect the dangerous
gas until it is too late.

Symptoms of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Light exposure to carbon monoxide causes flu like symptoms and
when left un-diagnosed, can pose long lasting health risks. Some
common symptoms from exposure include; mild nausea, headaches
or shortness of breath. Greater exposure to carbon monoxide will
lead to more severe dizziness, headaches and nausea and if left
untreated, eventually death. High-level exposure to carbon monoxide
gas can be fatal within minutes.
What to do When Exposed to Carbon Monoxide
If you are exposed to, or suspect you have been exposed to carbon
monoxide gas, leave the premises and move to fresh air immediately.
If you cannot leave or evacuate a person who was exposed, ventilate
the area by opening windows or doors and turn off heaters or appliances
that burn fossil fuels. Once clear of the carbon monoxide gas,
go to the emergency room to get treatment and run blood tests
to determine if carbon monoxide is present.
