A Silent Killer in Your East Syracuse Home?

Published on November 04, 2015
Carbon Monoxide Infographic Header

Service Experts Heating and Air Conditioning surveyed 1,000 homeowners in the U.S. and Canada on their familiarity of carbon monoxide (CO). According to The Centers for Disease Control, carbon monoxide poisoning is a primary cause of unintentional poisoning deaths – causing about 15,000 emergency room visits and nearly 500 deaths yearly in the United States1. There are startling gaps in what homeowners do and don’t know about keeping safe.

A lot of common household appliances release carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that may build to dangerous levels in your home when fuel-burning devices are not appropriately vented, operated or maintained. Breathing in CO could cause carbon monoxide poisoning which attacks the nervous system, heart and could be fatal. It’s crucial to have your home inspected for carbon monoxide regularly to help ensure safe air quality.

Common sources of CO in homes include certain:

  • Furnaces
  • Stoves
  • Space heaters
  • Fireplaces
  • Water heaters
  • Clothes dryers

What do you know about CO?

Our survey results show the unsettling lack of information homeowners have about the dangers of carbon monoxide:

  • 66% don’t know if they would identify the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning (headache, nausea, dizziness, or confusion).
  • 94% of homeowners know that the furnace can give off deadly carbon monoxide gas, but more than half (54%) don’t get an annual furnace tune-up, a simple step that can help ensure good furnace operation and venting.
  • 54% don’t know the best place in the home to install a carbon monoxide detector (the Consumer Product Safety Commission suggests a detector outside of each separate sleeping area).
  • More than half of homeowners (54%) don’t know that the clothes dryer could be a source of carbon monoxide; 25% don’t know that that fireplace also could be a source. Other likely sources include gas water heaters, gas ranges, charcoal grills, gas space heaters and wood burning stoves.
  • Over one third of homeowners (34%) don’t have or are not sure if they have a carbon monoxide detector in their home; 41% say they never swap out their carbon monoxide detector, or they aren’t sure how often it is replaced.
