How Much Do You Know About CO?

• CO can not be seen, smelled, or tasted, But if ingested in a certain amount, it is fatal.
• The accumulation of CO in the blood is called carboxyhemoglobin (COHb), It interferes with the body’s ability to supply oxygen.
• Depending on the concentration, CO can kill humans in minutes.
• The most common sources of CO are malfunctioning gas appliances used for heating and cooking, started vehicles in garages, blocked chimneys or flues, portable fuel-burning heaters, fireplaces, and operating a grill in an enclosed space.
• Indications of carbon monoxide poisoning include symptoms similar to the flu but without fever.
• Other symptoms include dizziness, fatigue, weakness, headache, nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and confusion.
• Everyone is susceptible to the danger of CO, but experts agree that unborn babies, small children, pregnant women, senior citizens, and people with heart or respiratory problems are at the highest risk for serious injury or death.
• Every year a qualified technician should inspect and clean your heating system, vents, chimney, and flues.
