21 What is Carbon Monoxide? Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, poisonous gas created when any fuel is burned – gasoline, propane, natural gas, oil, wood, coal, and even tobac- co. When combustion air is limited, more CO is produced. Serious problems can develop when combustion by-products are not properly vented outside the house.
22 When these appliances are in good working condition with proper ventilation, lethal carbon monoxide gas is vented outdoors where it quick- ly disperses. But even the slightest malfunction or misuse of any of these sources can lead to a build-up of carbon monoxide in your home that can become dead- ly before you’d even know it’ s there.
23 • Notice problems that could indicate improper appliance operation: – Decreasing hot water supply – Furnace unable to heat house or runs constantly – Sooting, especially on appliances – U.
24 • Small amounts of water leaking from the base of the chimney , vent or flue pipe. • Rust on the portion of the vent pipe visible from outside your home. • The absence of a draft in your chimney (indicating blockage). • Fallen soot from the fireplace chimney .
