Importance Of Carbon Monoxide Alarms

Custom KitchenCarbon Monoxide Dangers

Chances are, you have smoke alarms installed throughout your home to keep your family safe. However, they are not the only alarms that you should invest in. Installing carbon monoxide alarms around your home can help to keep you and your family safe from one of the biggest threats.

Carbon monoxide, also known as the silent killer, is an odorless, colorless gas that is only detectible with an alarm. There are many sources of carbon monoxide throughout your home, including gas fueled water heaters, fireplaces, furnaces, generators, gas stoves, and car exhaust. Hiring a professional to check all of your gas appliances can help to prevent a carbon monoxide leak in your house.

You should place a carbon monoxide alarm on every level of your house. An alarm should also be installed in every bedroom, or directly outside. Make sure that all of your alarms are installed at least 15 feet away from any sources of carbon monoxide to prevent any false alarms. Just like your smoke alarms, your carbon monoxide alarms should be tested at least twice a year.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is one of the most difficult conditions to diagnose, since there are a range of symptoms that can also be attributed to various other conditions. Some of the most common symptoms include headaches, nausea, fatigue, shortness of breath, vomiting, unconsciousness, or confusion. If you or someone in your family is experiencing one or more of these symptoms, evacuate the house, move to well a ventilated area and call for help.

Having the right homeowners insurance policy can help to keep your home safe from any unfortunate event. Contact the insurance professionals at Gant Insurance Agency in McKinney, Texas for all of your home insurance coverage needs and to ensure that you have the protection that you deserve.
