Sources of Carbon Monoxide in the Home
Poorly maintained heating appliances can be sources of carbon monoxide in the home. In fact, residential carbon monoxide poisoning is “the most common scenario for CO [carbon monoxide] exposure, accounting for most non-fatal injuries and almost half of deaths caused by CO.”
Importantly, homeowners are at a heightened risk for carbon monoxide poisoning during the winter months, and a regular heating inspection (at least annual) should be a priority in order to ensure properly working equipment and their personal safety.
