What you should know about Carbon Monoxide in your home!

3/25/2015

 
Picture
Many people each year are hospitalized or die from carbon monoxide poisoning, most of them while sleeping!  It's important to get educated about this colourless, odorless, tasteless toxic gas!

Carbon monoxide is being produced in the majority of our homes.  It comes from carbon based fuels such as wood, propane, natural gas, heating oil, coal, kerosene, charcoal and gasoline.

These toxic fumes can enter the body through normal breathing, leading to the lungs while replacing oxygen in the blood and preventing the flow of oxygen to vital organs.  Symptoms can be from headaches and nausea to death.

There are precautions that homeowners should take to protect themselves and their families!
  • Have appliances properly vented, maintained and inspected regularly by a licenced professional
  • Have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually
  • Install CSA approved Carbon Monoxide Dectectors throughout your home 

Proper Placement of the Carbon Monoxide Detector

For maximum protection - Carbon Monoxide Dectectors should be locatedin or near primary sleeping areas and on each level of your home.  Any height is appropriate since carbon monoxide is the same weight as air.


DO NOT install the Detectors - in very cold temperatures, near cleaning products, near open flame appliances including, stoves, fireplaces or furnaces, near vents or exhaust or behind furniture or other obstructions.


Due Diligence will keep your family safe and healthy!!

Have you thought of a fireplace for zone heating in your home!

It's still only the first of October and too soon to have to turn on the furnace and heat your whole house!

At this time of year - heating the area of your home that you're in might be the best option.  

Whether it be your living room, bedroom or kitchen, installing a fireplace will quickly take the chill out of the air and make your space cozy and comfortable!

Air-Tech Mechanical sells and installs fireplaces by Continental made locally in Barrie, Ontario.

If your furnace looks like this old truck....it's time to think about a new one!!

Crazy or not....

With record breaking temperature lows this month, people are actually starting to think about turning on their HEAT!!

Whether or not you actually do it - it's not a bad reminder of how quickly it can cool off.

Surely we have plenty of warm weather coming our way, but just so you're prepared - it's a great time to plan ahead!

Hot or Cold, control the temperature in every room in your house.
Regardless of whether or not you currently have ductwork in your home, ductless systems are a great option for controlling the temperature in certain areas of your home, such as cooling your bedroom only for a better nights sleep.  These units can also be used for heat at cooler times of the year.
