Winter Protection Against Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Filed under: Fire Safety — admin @ 9:37 am

Is it just me or is it starting to get cooler at night? Maybe, it’s just the good old British weather trying to deceive us once more, and will wait until September to heat up once more. Never the less over the next few months, nights will start to feel a bit chillier and people will be forced to flick the switch on their central heating systems, turning the heating thermometers into the 20′s.

Putting on the central heating may seem a bit drastic for some people, preferring instead to turn on the gas fire in the living room in order take the chill out of the autumn night air.

Simply by turning on a faulty gas fire you could be releasing a silent killer into your room. Carbon Monoxide (CO) is caused when fuel is not burned properly. Carbon Monoxide is tasteless, odourless, colourless and non irritating and it will kill you. Here at Crime Prevention Products we understand that people, especially the elderly and those with little children, sometimes like to have extra heat in their homes at night which is why gas fires/heaters should be maintained reguarly.

Purchasing Carbon Monoxide Detectors and Alarms is a cheap way to make sure that your family is safe from the silent killer which is Carbon Monoxide. Also ideal for taking on holidays, especially during the off-peak times.
