FAQ
FAQ
What is Carbon Monoxide?
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon-containing fuels. It is often referred to as the "silent killer" because it is virtually undetectable without the use of specialized equipment.
Sources of carbon monoxide
Common sources of carbon monoxide include vehicles, gas-powered appliances, fireplaces, and generators. When these sources are not properly ventilated or maintained, they can produce dangerous levels of carbon monoxide.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning
The symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can vary depending on the level of exposure. Mild symptoms may include headache, dizziness, and fatigue, while more severe symptoms can include confusion, chest pain, and loss of consciousness. It is important to seek medical attention immediately if carbon monoxide poisoning is suspected.
How does a carbon monoxide alarm prevent CO poisoning?
By detecting the presence of carbon monoxide in the air, a carbon monoxide alarm can alert you to a potential danger before you even realize it. CO poisoning can be fatal, as the gas can quickly build up in enclosed spaces and displace oxygen in the bloodstream. Without a carbon monoxide alarm, you may not be aware of the danger until it is too late. With a properly functioning alarm, you can take action to ventilate the area, evacuate the building, and seek medical attention if necessary.
