Home Safety Tips

Many CO poisonings are caused by equipment failures due to poor maintenance,
product defects, and damaged parts. The following is a list of safety tips to help
prevent CO poisoning within your home:
1. Have all fuel-burning appliances inspected and cleaned yearly by a qualified
service technician. The furnace, water heater, and stove are some of the leading
sources of CO in homes.
2. Clean fireplace vents and chimney regularly. A blocked chimney could cause a
backdraft of CO into the home. Do not cap chimney. This will cause a backdraft
of CO into the home.
3. Do not cap or cover a drafthood or exhaust vent to any appliance. This will trap
dangerous CO inside the house.
4. Do not close off or confine your fuel-burning appliances in a closed area. They
need plenty of ventilation to operate properly.
5. Do not use liquid propane (LP) or charcoal grills indoors.
6. Do not operate any gasoline-powered equipment indoors.
7. Allow for plenty of ventilation when using a kerosene heater. Do not use in small
areas.
Preventive maintenance, common sense, and a CO detection device are some of
the best methods of preventing CO poisoning. However, a dangerous situation can
happen to anyone at any time.
The following list illustrates some danger signs of CO presence.
1. Soot and dirt build-up seeping out of chimney or other exhaust vents.
2. A mostly yellow, rather than clear blue, burner flame or pilot flame in gas
appliances.
3. A draft of air coming from appliances, chimneys, or vents.
If you have flu-like symptoms or suspect CO poisoning, seek medical
assistance immediately.
