Signs You Need a Carbon Monoxide Detector
Every home needs a carbon monoxide detector because CO is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that can be deadly if inhaled in large amounts. It’s produced by the incomplete combustion of fuels such as gas, oil, wood, and coal. Common sources of CO in the home include furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, stoves, and car engines.
Without a CO detector, carbon monoxide is undetectable, meaning you may have a leak and be unaware. Your home needs a CO detector because:
- As an invisible threat, dangerous levels of CO can build up unnoticed.
- Exposure to carbon monoxide can cause serious health issues, including headaches, dizziness, weakness, nausea, confusion, and, in severe cases, death.
- Appliances can malfunction, leading to CO leaks. A detector provides an additional layer of safety.
- In many areas, building codes require the installation of CO detectors in homes, particularly in sleeping areas and near fuel-burning appliances.
