Carbon monoxide awareness
With winter just around the corner, and the evenings drawing in earlier, now is the time that we’re all starting to turn the central heating on back after the summer.
And it’s also a great time to ensure that your gas boiler is working safely and efficiently too, following on from Carbon Monoxide Awareness week across the country.
Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas produced by the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels – gas, oil, wood and coal, as used in gas boilers, oil burners, water heaters, gas overs, solid fuel appliances and open fires.
Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless, so detecting it can be difficult – the use of an audible carbon monoxide alarm is helpful, which can usually be purchased from any DIY store or energy retailer.
