I just heard on the news recently that another local family was poisoned by carbon-monoxide due to a faulty furnace and the outcome was tragic for one of the victims... This is terrible news!
Listen up... If you don't have a carbon-monoxide (CO) detector in your residence and you have appliances that burn fuel you need to invest in one now! CO is an orderless and tasteless gas so you cannot sense its presence.
Here are some home appliances that can burn fuel:
- Gas Furnace
- Gas Water Heater
- Gas Range/Stove
- Fireplace (gas log)
- Portable Camping Lantern / Stove
- Kerosene Heaters
- Gas Generator
Kidde, who manufacturers smoke detectors and carbon-monoxide detectors have combined the two into one exciting package, the KN-COSM-XTR-B Intelligent Alarm, Combination Carbon Monoxide, Fire and Smoke. This unit even has voice so it tells you “Fire! Fire!” or “Warning Carbon Monoxide.”!
