Don’t Let Space Heaters Increase Your Risk of CO Poisoning
During the winter months, many people often rely on space heaters to keep warm and avoid skyrocketing home heating bills.
The risk of doing so can be life-threatening. Gasoline or other fossil fuel-powered space heaters are a leading cause of carbon monoxide poisoning. Combustible fuels can become trapped in enclosed spaces, instead of being vented to the outdoors. A gas powered space heater that is not properly installed or vented could spread a harmful amount of carbon monoxide into a room, and limiting the circulation of oxygen that is crucial for human survival.
It is imperative to install carbon monoxide detectors on every floor of a home, especially if there are gas powered space heaters in use. Each year, nearly 400 people die from carbon monoxide poisoning that derives from fuel-burning appliances such as space heaters, according to the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Briscoe Protective Systems Inc., has partnered with local fire districts to implement a community service initiative called, “Just One Life.” Just One Life is focused on providing and installing life safety devices for members of the local community, in an effort to potentially save lives from smoke and CO poisoning. For more information on life safety devices and the Just One Life initiative, please contact Briscoe Protective Systems Inc. at 1 (888) BRISCOE (274-7263) or visit www.briscoeprotective.com.
