Carbon Monoxide – A Hidden Danger

CO gas is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas which is highly toxic to humans and animals.  A malfunctioning gas appliance or a running vehicle in and enclosed garage can fill your home full of carbon monoxide. Exposure to carbon monoxide is most commonly accompanied by the following symptoms:

  • Headache
  • Dizziness
  • Nausea
  • Flu-like symptoms, fatigue
  • Impaired judgment
  • Chest pain
  • Confusion
  • Drowsiness

Long term exposure can lead to unconsciousness and death. If your carbon monoxide detector sounds call 911 immediately. We have special detectors that look for concentrations of carbon monoxide and help us to identify the problem.
