What You Need to Know About CO
What is CO?
CO is an invisible, odorless, tasteless gas produced when fossil fuels do not burn completely, or
are exposed to heat (usually fire). Electrical appliances typically do not produce CO.
These fuels include: Wood, coal, charcoal, oil, natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, and propane.
Common appliances are often sources of CO. If they are not properly maintained, are improperly ventilated,
or malfunction, CO levels can rise quickly. CO is a real danger now that homes are more energy ecient. “Air-
tight” homes with added insulation, sealed windows, and other weatherproofing can “trap” CO inside.
Symptoms of CO Poisoning
The following symptoms may be related to CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING and should be discussed with ALL
members of the household:
Mild exposure: Headaches, running nose, sore eyes, often described as “flu”-like symptoms;
Medium Exposure: Dizziness, drowsiness, vomiting;
Extreme Exposure: Unconsciousness, brain damage, death.
Many cases of reported CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING indicate that while victims are aware they are not well, they
become so disoriented they are unable to save themselves by either exiting the building or calling for assistance.
!
IMPORTANT: This CO Alarm measures exposure to CO over time. It alarms if CO levels are extremely high in a short period of time, or if CO
levels reach a certain minimum over a long period of time. The CO Alarm generally sounds an alarm before the onset of symptoms in average,
healthy adults. Why is this important? Because you need to be warned of a potential CO problem while you can still react in time. In many
reported cases of CO exposure, victims may be aware that they are not feeling well, but become disoriented and can no longer react well enough
to exit the building or get help. Also, young children and pets may be the first aected. The average healthy adult might not feel any symptoms
when the CO Alarm sounds. However, people with cardiac or respiratory problems, infants, unborn babies, pregnant mothers, or elderly people
can be more quickly and severely aected by CO. If you experience even mild symptoms of CO poisoning, consult your doctor immediately!
