Carbon monoxide poisoning is a serious threat to you and
your family. This colorless and odorless gas can be generated by a variety of
appliances in your home. By maintaining
your furnace, water heater, and other home appliances, you can help reduce
the risk of contaminating your home’s air with carbon monoxide. Here is a quick
look at the dangers of coming into contact with carbon monoxide.
Carbon Monoxide
Poisoning
Since carbon monoxide is completely colorless and odorless,
it can be nearly impossible to detect the prescience of this deadly gas in your
home. If an appliance is leaking carbon monoxide, you may experience the
symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. Persons suffering from carbon
monoxide poisoning may experience nausea, dizziness, or loss of consciousness.
In extreme cases, carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to death.
To eliminate the danger of carbon monoxide poisoning in your
home, it is important to take steps to prevent carbon monoxide leaks. Be sure
to schedule regular maintenance appointments for your appliances. In addition,
you may want to install a carbon monoxide detector in your home.
