Carbon monoxide poisoning is the leading cause of poisoning death in the United
States. Carbon monoxide is odorless and colorless making its detection impossible
without a carbon monoxide monitor.
The gas enters the body and acts to exclude oxygen from the bloodstream. Exposure
to carbon monoxide can cause flu-like symptoms such as upset stomach, headaches,
dizziness, and fatigue. Other symptoms of mild carbon monoxide poisoning include
memory loss and depression. Inhalation of high levels of carbon monoxide can
cause a coma or death without any warning to the victim.
Common sources of carbon monoxide include gas-fired appliances (furnaces, stoves,
water heaters, washers and dyers), fireplaces, automobiles and forklifts. These
sources may release carbon monoxide if they malfunction or if an exhaust vent
is blocked. It is advisable to install a carbon monoxide detector in your home.
