"You can't see it, smell it, or taste it, which is exactly what makes carbon monoxide so dangerous. This colorless gas is produced whenever fuel is burned, including natural gas furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, stoves, and generators. When those appliances are working properly and venting correctly, you're safe. When they aren't, carbon monoxide can build up quickly inside your home.
Prevention starts with working CO detectors on every level of your home and near sleeping areas. Test them regularly, replace batteries as needed, and replace the detectors themselves according to the manufacturer's guidelines. If an alarm sounds or you suspect a leak, get everyone outside into fresh air and call 911 right away.
Annual heating system maintenance is one of the best defenses you have. During a check-up, our NATE-certified technicians inspect your equipment, venting, and combustion safely and thoroughly. Checking your detectors is also included in our ACTION Advantage Home Protection Plans, so you can feel confident they're ready.
Don't leave your family's safety to chance. Watch the video, check your detectors today, and schedule a safety inspection with ACTION at 402-423-6960."
