If you're using a generator for storm-related power outages, remember to use it safely and be sure you have working #SmokeAlarms and #CarbonMonoxide alarms on every level of your home. Used improperly, generators can pose a fire hazard or CO risk: https://bit.ly/4APH2lx

Autumn is officially here! 🍂

Temps are beginning to drop, so furnaces, fireplaces, and space heaters start getting more use. This brings new carbon monoxide risks. Stay safe.

Happy Fall to you!

Did you know that #CarbonMonoxide is a leading cause of accidental poisoning? You don't need to carry a special meter like this one, but you do need working #CO alarms on every level of your home! Read more: https://bit.ly/3NjZFWQ

Low-level CO exposure can be easy to miss.

Headaches, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, and shortness of breath may be warning signs and can sometimes be mistaken for the flu.

Keep working CO alarms in place and fuel-burning appliances properly maintained.

Pet carbon monoxide safety starts at home. 🐾 CO is odorless and invisible, so working detectors matter for pets too. Test alarms, replace batteries, and keep fuel-burning appliances maintained. #PetSafety #CarbonMonoxide #PetParents

If something looks wrong around a fuel-burning appliance, don’t ignore it.

Unusual staining, soot, or symptoms like headaches are reasons to get the system checked and make sure you have a working CO alarm.

Carbon monoxide can come from everyday fuel-burning sources like furnaces, water heaters, stoves, grills, generators, and vehicles.

Knowing where CO can come from is one of the first steps in preventing exposure. Keep your appliances maintained!

It's the first Saturday of the month, and that means it's #SmokeAlarmSaturday! This is a great time to test the #SmokeAlarms & #CarbonMonoxide alarms on every level of your home. They're your family's first line of defense against an emergency! Learn more: https://bit.ly/3NjZFWQ

A #CarbonMonoxide detector is crucial for travel safety. CO is undetectable by sight or smell, making a detector indispensable.

In places with fewer regulations than the UK, the danger is even greater.

Make sure you're protected by including a CO alarm in your travel gear.
