How to Prevent Carbon Monoxide Poisoning After an Emergency

An odorless, colorless gas, carbon monoxide (CO) can cause sudden illness and death if inhaled and every year, more than 500 people die in the U. S. from accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. When power outages occur during emergencies such as hurricanes or winter storms, the use of alternative sources of fuel or electricity for heating, cooling, or cooking can cause carbon monoxide to build up in a home, garage, tent, or camper and it can easily poison the people and animals inside such structures.
Fortunately, you can take a number of preventive measures to minimize and remove the chances of any type of carbon monoxide poisoning after an emergency, as discussed in this article.
