Sources of carbon monoxide & preventative measures
 Carbon monoxide is created, among others, during
incomplete combustion processes (e.g. defective floor
heating or clogged smoke outlets).
 Installing a CO alarm is not a substitute for the proper
installation, use and maintenance of fuel-burning devices
including related ventilation and exhaust gas systems.
 Have such devices/systems installed only by qualified
persons. Acquire the devices/systems in perfect technical
condition and have them regularly inspected.
 Make sure that ovens, chimneys and the like are kept clean
at all times.
 Never operate barbecues, deck ovens, heating devices or
other devices intended for use outside inside closed rooms.
