Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention




Four tips to prevent carbon monoxide buildup in your home this winter.

1.  Test your CO detectors and replace batteries every time you change your clocks (fall and spring).

2.  Use the fan over your gas range to vent air outside.

3.  Adjust your burners so you get a blue flame; a yellow-tipped flame produces more emissions.

4.  Get a furnace inspection to ensure the safety and efficiency of your heating system.

Small tips can add value to your home and increase your personal safety.
