Statistically only about 50% of us households have a carbon monoxide detector or alarm in their home. carbon monoxide related deaths are so high due to the symptoms of exposure being very similar to influenza. most of the deaths occur at night. someone in the home isn’t feeling very well so he decides to lay down but never wakes up. The only way to prevent that from happening is by installing a carbon monoxide detector.
If you suspect that you have a carbon monoxide leak in your home it is best to contact a professional who knows how to look for leaks. It could be coming from your water heater, furnace or chimney. have these things inspected at least once a year to prevent leaks. carbon monoxide could be leaking from your chimney if you see black streaks of soot. If soot is falling down that means there is something wrong higher up. A yearly inspection can prevent leaks from your chimney.
