1. What is Carbon Monoxide?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly poisonous gas with no taste, colour or smell.
Potenal Sources of CO
•Wood-burning stoves
•Gas boilers and res
•Gas stoves
•Oil and coal burning appliances
•Portable gas heaters
•Blocked flues and chimneys
•Fumes from integral garages
•Barbecues
THIS CO ALARM IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE CORRECT
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR APPLIANCES.
Carbon monoxide can be produced from poorly burning appliances
or from blocked flues and chimneys.
If your alarm has sounded and you have venlated the room the CO
may have dispersed before help arrives. It is crucial that the source
of CO is determined and appropriate maintenance carried out.
Carbon monoxide is a cumulave poison. Longterm exposure to low levels may cause symptoms.
This Quell alarm is me-weighted – the higher the level o CO, the sooner it will alarm.
