What is Carbon Monoxide?
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, and colorless gas which is caused by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels from Gasoline Kerosene Natural Gas Butane Propane Fuel oil, wood or coal and any other type of fuel. It is estimated that carbon monoxide causes as many as 1,000 deaths per year in the United States.
Carbon monoxide gas can be emitted by Fire places Gas heaters Gas stoves Gas or oil furnaces Wood, coal or gas dryers Gas barbeques Recommended test areas are: homes, kitchens, furnace areas, garages, cars, RVs, campers, boats,airplanes,wood stoves, fireplaces, space heaters and water heaters. How fast does the sensor work? ConcentrationReaction Time 600 ppm (.060%)1-2 minutes 400 ppm (.040%)2-4 minutes 200 ppm (.020%)4-15 minutes 100 ppm (.010%)15-30 minutes 50 ppm (.005%)30-45 minutes
Note: Reaction time is slightly faster when damp, and slightly slower when dry.
Caution: The sensor button will be damaged by halogens, ammoniac and nitrous gases. Keep away from cleaners, solvents and other contaminants. Harsh direct sunlight will bleach out sensor button and shorten useful life.

Do you have a gas or oil burning furnace in your home or office? Do you have a working fireplace? Do you have a gas clothes dryer? Do you have a gas or oil burning water heater? Do you have a kerosene, gas, or oil burning space heater? Do you or someone you know start their automobile in the garage with the door closed? If you answered YES to any of the above questions, then you and your family are at risk of suffocating to death by INVISIBLE and ODORLESS CARBON MONOXIDE GAS!
What is Carbon Monoxide?
Carbon Monoxide is a lethal gas produced in normal amounts whenever you use an appliance which burns a combustible fuel. Combustible fuels include gas, oil, kerosene, charcoal and wood. When proper ventilation of appliances becomes blocked, carbon monoxide concentrations build up inside your home and become deadly.
Because carbon monoxide is invisible, tasteless and odorless, its victims may never know there is something wrong until it’s too late. It often takes the lives of whole families. Children and the elderly are the first to be overcome along with pets. Over 2,500* people in the United States will die each year of carbon monoxide poisoning and over 10,000 will be hospitalized.
Most victims who lose consciousness may be left with permanent brain damage, mental and speech disorders, vision and hearing impairments, seizures, coma or death.
Why Should I Worry?
Carbon Monoxide quickly replaces vital oxygen in the blood which results in suffocation from the inside out. It could take as little as 3 minutes, depending on the level of concentration. Since you cannot see, hear, taste or smell carbon monoxide, the only way to protect your family is to recognize the symptoms and install a carbon monoxide detector.
Symptoms to watch for:
headaches, drowsiness, dizzineess an confusion
nausea, vomiting and rapid heartbeat
unconsciousness, coma and death
everyone in the house is feeling ill at the same time
it feels as though you have the flu Common Causes of In-Home Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Malfunctioning or improperly vented heaters and furnaces
Blocked passageways in chimneys and flues
Paint removers which contain methylene chloride and which the body absorbs and converts to carbon monoxide
Depressurization in the house (“backdraft”). Understanding the Meaning of CO Concentrations
