Detailed Description

To avoid dangerous levels of CO, it is important to maintain all combustion appliances in good working order: charcoal heaters, gas heaters, wood stoves, water heaters, gas stoves, and open chimneys; schedule chimney-sweeping and flare conduit cleaning at least once a year. One must ensure that there is adequate ventilation in rooms containing combustion installations (kitchen, garage, bathroom) and especially avoid blocking or crushing ventilation apertures.

A closer look at Carbon Monoxide (CO).

  • Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and toxic gas produced by the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous materials: coal, paper, gasoline, diesel oil, gas, wood, etc.
  • Lighter than air, it rapidly diffuses in the atmosphere leaving no way to detect it, which gives it its dangerous character.
    Many sources of carbon monoxide can be found in the home: 
    Gas stoves 
    Fuel-fired furnaces and gas water heaters, chimneys; 
    Cigarette smoking: each smoked cigarette emits 50 mg of CO 


CO concentration / human danger scale

De 0 to 1 ppm normal level of CO in the air
9 ppm maximum level in a room with no harm to health
50 ppm maximum level bearable for continuous exposure during 8 hours
200 ppm mild headache, nausea, dizziness
400 ppm serious headache, life threatening after 3 hours
800 ppm death after 2 hours
1,600 ppm nausea in 20 minutes, death after 1 hour
12,800 ppm death within 1 to 3 minutes
