What should you do to prevent carbon monoxide in your home?

The best way to eliminate the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning is to ensure it never enters your home. As a preemptive measure, you should have a qualified technician inspect your fuel-burning appliances, chimney and vents, fireplaces and examine the utilities room in your home to ensure there is adequate air for proper combustion. It is also important that every home have a CO detector to give you warning when high level of CO is reached in a short time.
