Because carbon monoxide can’t be seen and doesn’t have a distinctive taste or smell, it’s something people don’t become aware of until it’s already dangerous. Carbon monoxide alarms are inexpensive air quality systems, and having them installed in your home or workplace could make all the difference if your heating develops a fault.
"Can't say enough nice things about Beltway. The entire staff is prompt and courteous. They made my install happen quickly and it was done with 124 degree temperature in the attic but never a complaint. They are also very neat!"
- Christy S.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can be highly toxic to people and animals. Exposure to carbon monoxide can present a serious safety hazard. To keep people safe, it’s recommended to service gas-burning appliances regularly and use a carbon monoxide alarm to alert people to the presence of this substance.
It’s important to test carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure the batteries are working. It’s also important to choose their install location carefully to ensure the sensors aren’t exposed to dirt or condensation.
Many carbon monoxide alarms are also smoke alarms, so offer protection from fire as well. The professionals at [comapny_name] can offer advice on how many alarms you need to cover all of the key areas in your property, to ensure optimum protection. Larger homes may need more carbon monoxide detectors, especially if you have multiple gas-using appliances.
In addition to ensuring you can detect carbon monoxide production, it’s a good idea to think about making sure your heating works is in good working order. If the pilot light on your heating is not burning clean, or you can see soot or dirt near any vents, this could be a warning sign that you may need to worry about carbon monoxide production from your unit.
Don’t ignore these warning signs. Contact the experts at Beltway Air Conditioning & Heating for advice and information about carbon monoxide alarms and other options you have for ensuring the safety of your heating system.
