That means more heaters and furnaces are running, and more people are warming up their cars before traveling. There are also larger amounts of carbon monoxide being produced, increasing the danger of carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide can replace oxygen in (he bloodstream leading to suffocation. The most common source of carbon monoxide is automobile exhaust, but any substance that hurns-includwood, propane, kerosene and natural gas-c- an produce it.

When a natural gas furnace is operating properly, with complete combustion, it produces only heat, water vapor and carbon dioxide. No carbon monoxide is produced. An adequate venting system also ensures that all combustion byproducts are vented to the outdoors. Carbon monoxide poisoning from vehicles is also easily preventable. A car or truck should never he left running in a garage with the door closed. Also, all vehicle cxhausc systems should be inspected regularly for leaks. If you have a boat or recreational vehicle with a propane stove or heater, a carbon monoxide detector approved by Underwriter Laboratories should he installed.
