LOCATING THE SOURCE OF CO AFTER AN ALARM
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, invisible gas, which
makes it challenging to locate the source of CO after an
alarm. These are a few of the factors that can make it
difficult to locate sources of CO:
Residence well ventilated prior to investigator arrival.
Issue caused by "backdrafting."
Transient CO problem caused by special circumstances.
Because CO may dissipate by the time an investigator
arrives, it may be difficult to locate the source. Knox
Safety shall not be obligated to pay for any carbon
monoxide investigation or service call.
Carbon Monoxide cannot be seen or smelled but
can kill you. A signal from your alarm may indicate
the presence of Carbon Monoxide.
If the alarm signal sounds:
1) Operate the TEST/RESET button.
2) Call your emergency services (Fire Department or 911)
Write down the number of you Fire Department here:
3) Immediately move to fresh air – outdoors or by an open door or window.
Check to make sure that all residents are accounted for. Do not re-enter
the premises or move away from the open door or window until the
emergency services responder has arrived, the premises have been
aired out, and your carbon monoxide alarm returns to and remains in its
normal operating condition.
4) After following steps 1-3, if your alarm re-activates within a 24-hour
period, repeat steps 1-3 and contact a qualified appliance technician to
look for sources of carbon monoxide from fuel-burning equipment. If
problems are identified during this inspection, have the equipment
serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by
the Technician, and consult the manufacturer’s instructions or contact the
manufacturer(s) directly for more information about carbon monoxide
safety and this equipment. Confirm that motor vehicles are not, and have
not been, operating in an attached garage or adjacent to your residence.
Write down the Technician’s phone number here:
