4. USING YOUR PUMP
DANGER!
Water pump exhaust contains high levels of carbon monoxide
(CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell
the exhaust you are breathing CO. Even if you cannot smell the
exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER run the pump inside a home, garage, crawlspace, or other
partly enclosed area, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build
up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors will
NOT supply enough fresh air.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the pump has
been running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY and seek medical
attention. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning. Never run
the water pump in an enclosed or even partially enclosed area
where people may be present.
